Description

Monsters may look and act scary, but deep down they're not so different from you and me. They talk and giggle, they read and clean their rooms, and they have ENORMOUS chompers for...eating ice cream!

This humorous book will have kids giggling and turning the pages as they discover that monsters aren't so scary after all--and discover their own inner monster!

ALA/Booklist

While the repetition of the surprise-based joke pattern makes it funnier in concept than execution, the book does have a valuable plea for kindness, gentleness, empathy, and understanding, supported by artwork depicting an intentionally multicultural and diversely abled classroom of students learning this monster of a lesson.
