My daughter has several toy monsters, but has not yet developed any fear around the idea of monsters, so I was delighted to find a book where the monster was not scary. The illustrations are wonderful. The monster looks to be drawn in pen, which adds greatly to the idea that this little boy is drawing it himself. It is fun to read, not too wordy, and quite funny. The library volunteer was even chucking to herself while listening to me read this story!
This is a fun choice for older toddlers that can handle paper books without tearing them. Even early school-aged children that are interested in art would enjoy this book and find it funny.
