Reviews
The gently rhyming text is perfect for reading aloud and will spark discussions of beastly and non-beastly behavior., Spunky rhymes and zany monster illustrations bedeck this delightful bedtime tale for children age 3 and up., Moore's soft-toned, gentle and whimsical cartoon drawings in pencil and watercolors easily complement the smoothly readable, rhyming text., My second grade assistant reviewers liked the book, and Miles commented that his favorite part was (spoiler alert) when the monster "said no manners and then farted and it stinked." So there's obviously something that will appeal to everyone in this picture book for younger readers. A good book also for a parent with a child or two who might recognize themselves in the pouty protagonist., With sound effects throughout, this rhyming read-aloud provides the opportunity for discussing appropriate and inappropriate behavior with preschoolers, as well as the concept of unconditional love.

Synopsis
A rambunctious young boy visualizes becoming a monster, but after driving monster trucks, scaring people off, and taking mud baths he concludes that his warm, cozy bed is where he belongs., After an especially "busy" day, a preschool-age boy overhears his mother say, "He's been a monster all day." So the little boy starts to fantasize about what life as a monster would be like. "I wonder why Mommy thinks that of me? / I guess if she does then a monster I'll be! / I'm big and strong! / I grumble and growl / and scare people off / with a sneer and a scowl. / Being a monster is fun!" There are no rules to remember or manners to follow. And monsters can stay out as late as they please, scaring everyone away. As it turns out, being a monster isn't all it's cracked up to be. No one wants to be friends with a monster. And who will read a story and tuck a monster into bed? Maybe being a little boy isn't such a bad thing after all.
