Editorial Reviews

This is a fun book to use to introduce young children to their body parts.  Read the book aloud and ask your child to identify their same body parts as your cruise through this adorable book.  This monster is not scary and will introduce your child to a great literary character while teaching them their body parts.  This book takes you down from the head all the way to the toes.

PreS-K—Hitting most of the major plot points of the original, this simplistic preschool abridgement features a sweetly unthreatening monster and concludes with Frankenstein drifting cheerfully away on an Arctic ice floe with his animal friends. Saturated illustrations evoke the look of animated children's films with fully realized backdrops of a Swiss village, the alpine countryside, and the North Pole. One almost expects the characters to start moving. VERDICT Will this prepare children for Mary Shelley's classic some decades hence? It's both too complex and too simplified to matter.—Jan Aldrich Solow, formerly Fairfax County Public Sch., VA
