There's a Monster in Your Book (Who's in Your Book?)

by Tom Fletcher

[kimbacaffeinate]

THERE'S A MONSTER IN YOUR BOOK written by Tom Fletcher and colorfully illustrated by Greg Abbot has quickly become a favorite for the Royals. (my grandchildren ages 2.5 and 9 months) It tells the story of what happens when the reader discovering that a mischievous monster has broken into their book! Through action the reader/child attempts to remove the monster my tickling, turning, twisting and yelling. What ensues are priceless giggles and shocking discoveries before the reader/child finds themselves hugging the book and loving that there is a monster in their book.

Princess Sophia lights up when we read this book. She listens intently, acknowledges verbally where the monster is and follows the writer's directions all in an attempt to remove said monster. Her face, when that goal is achieved?  Priceless! I adored the ending and can easily imagine this book being a favorite on your child's bookshelf. Each and every time we finish the book she hugs it. Now Prince Clayton is only nine months old, but even he stops and moves close to see what is happening. His sister's actions and excitement bring forth growls and giggles from him.
