Love Monster
by Rachel Bright
Bright, R. (2012). Love monster. New York, NY: Farrar Straus Giroux.
Monster lives in a world of cute, fluffy things...kittens, puppies, bunnies; you know, all those adorable creatures everyone loves. But Monster, who is slightly hairy, and just a bit googly eyed is what you could call "funny looking." So Monster sets off determined to find someone who will love him just the way he is. After what seems to be an endless search, and more than a couple disappointments along the way, when he has just decided to give up and head home, monster finds what he is looking for and learns that sometimes love comes along when you least expect it. Children will no doubt be entertained by Monster's story, but also Bright's colorful illustrations set against pale backgrounds which add their own touches of humor. (Such as his "Packing List for the Big, Wide World", his list of "Places to Look," and his home amid the "Official Pile of Extreme Cuteness.") This picture book is recommended for children ages 2-7.
