What do our readers think of There's a Monster in Your Book? (Generated from the text of reviews of the book)
Children enjoy shaking, spinning and tickling the book, and they often find the monster funny and love joining in again and again. Some younger children need help with the actions, and the lively parts may be too exciting for a calm bedtime at first.
What does the Pageticker team say about There's a Monster in Your Book?
We love the way this playful picture book turns its audience into part of the story, with shaking, spinning, tickling and shouting bringing plenty of giggles. The friendly monster and gentle ending make it a reassuring choice for lively storytime or bedtime, although younger children may need an adult to guide the actions and settle things down afterwards.
