My daughter's favorite book

This is my three-year-old daughter's favorite book. She loves the illustrations and the idea that monsters have families and play games just like she does. Of course now she's very keen on the idea of a "spider spit," but that goes with the territory. =) Highly recommended.

cute!

This book is an interesting twist on an old story. The basis of the story is how a big brother picks on and teases his little sibling (in this case a little brother), but is still loved and admired by the sibling. The interesting part of this story, though, is that the characters in the book are monsters! No need to be afraid, though, as the monsters are not scary, but actually cute! The little monsters enjoy the same things that human kids do, but of course, with a monster-like twist! The illustrations are very enjoyable, and it is fun to find the "strange" items in each drawing. Parents may be a little disturbed by the the bad manners of the bigger brother, but it can lead to a discussion of good manners!
