Children's Choice Award Honor Book (K-2nd grade)

"Playful, engaging, and full of opportunities for empathy—a raucous storytime hit." —Kirkus Reviews
Excerpt:

"The monster's entirely cute appearance and clear emotional reactions to his treatment add to the interactive aspect, and some young readers might even resist the instructions to avoid hurting their new pal. Children will be brought along on the monster's journey, going from excited, noisy, and wiggly to calm and steady (one can hope). Playful, engaging, and full of opportunities for empathy—a raucous storytime hit. (Picture book. 2-7) —Kirkus Reviews
