Description
Everyone knows that the M in "monster" stands for MEAN. But what happens when a monster can't be mean any more? Is he still a monster at all?
One young monster's attempts to live up to his name go hilariously awry as he discovers with a little help from new friends that it's not what you're called but who you are that counts.
