Hi Melanie,
We need to talk! I’ll be doing my PhD on “How Do Trickster Archetypes Manifest in Modern-day Picture Books.” It’s not spot on the same as your topic, but it is tangential. Also, I give away coloring pages on my blog every week (and have for almost ten years) - many are reading related, and of those, many are monsters: <http://dulemba.com/index_ColoringPages.html>.
Cheers,
