5-8 Infant/Junior
There are all kinds of monsters in this book of nine short stories: a monster pie (shades of The Piemakers here), a clockwise monster, a word-eating monster and a plastic monster, to name a few; all harmless but they do crate some rather embarrassing moments for young Jerry and his family. Fun to read aloud to the over-sixes and for fluent readers to tackle themselves.
