A perfect parody of Madeline. Great curriculum connections at the high school levels.

I felt let down by this book. The book is cute, don't get me wrong, but I didn't love it like I was so sure I would. I love the premise- playing off of Madeline, with a cute Halloween story. The actual result: similarities to Madeline, but it felt forced at times, way off at times, and the rhyme and rhythm also tripped me up at times. I would get it from the library and share it with a special child in your life. Not something I would come back to again and again.

If you have a child that enjoys slightly dark themes, this is the book for you. Classic Madeline retold as a monster story. Heads eaten within.

This new book is a devilish treat from beginning to end. It’s a parody of Madeline that even includes a CaldeNOT Horror label. There is a school of devilish little monsters such as Frankenstein, Dracula, the Mummy, and the Wolfman. One night while they are sleeping Frankenstein’s head goes missing. The doctor runs him to the laboratory where they attach his new head with big bolts at the neck. Now all the little monsters want bolts too! A fun delicious read to share with your own little monster.
