Die Monster sind alle sooo niedlich und es gibt auf jeder Seite so viele von ihnen zu entdecken <3

I don't know what it is about these monster books that Jane Yolen has put out now (Romping Monsters Stomping Monsters...or something to that effect). I just don't like them! My co-workers at the library enjoyed them very much, but...I just don't think there is much of a story to them. I did enjoy this one better than the previously mentioned one. I love the art work...the story is just lacking something.

I like the illustrations and I love monsters as characters. What I didn't like was that it had about 4 words per layout so it was too quick for a bedtime story.

Very simple rhyming text and great pictures makes this an easy read aloud to toddlers. A decent, but not outstanding, addition to a monster themed story time.

Creepy Monsters, Sleepy Monsters is the story of monsters going home from school, eating their supper, taking a bath, even saying their prayers, and then getting into bed. All seems normal but kooky, too.

“Monsters slither,
Monsters wave,
All in a hurry
To get to their cave…”

Monsters and bedtime are always great subjects for children's books.

Took this one home since my 2.5 year old is currently going through a period of asking where the monsters are. Not sure if he's scared of monsters or just curious, but thought a cute monster book might help. He's liking the book (though it's a bit below his attention span/reading level at this point).
