Daughter loves it
My five year old brings his book home a lot from her school library so I decided to get her her own copy. The book I got was used but it was in a decent condition and my daughter will cherish it. It makes her feel a lot less worried about "monsters". The graphics, storyline and the cut outs are great.

Great book
This is a cool book. My granddaughter loved it when our library read it for story time so I ordered it for her. It's simple enough for a two year old, but older kids enjoy it, too.

A GREAT book for future engineers!
This is a very well designed and constructed hard cover book with a very simple story line. You spend half of the book building a scary big green monster, one part at a time. Starting with his yellow eyes, you turn the pages to reveal other pieces and parts. And just when you are finished building him, it is time to tell him to go away, color by color, and part by part. His eyes soon disappear into the darkness of the last page. In addition to learning colors, and some interesting adjectives that are used to describe the parts of the monster, children also feel empowered as they repeatedly tell the monster to go away and not come back (unless they say so). This book is also interesting in that it encourages young readers to view the monster not just as a whole, but as a collection of unique and distinct parts. The parts have little meaning until the monster is completely assembled, and the kids are subtly introduced to the notion that the whole can be greater than the sum of its parts. For all of these reasons, I love the book. It is an excellent choice for your young children.Read full review

Top-notch tale for little ones
Delightful tale for ages 2-5. Terrific simple-shape and bright color artwork attracts all kids. The wonderful tale gives each child the opportunity to control fearful "monsters." They enjoy it again & again. Watch the vulnerable nose!
