Our little monster by Ben Cunningham
Illus. by Chris Champan. Little Steps Publishing, 2019. ISBN:
9781925545852.
This is a funny picture story about the consequences of not paying
attention to your surroundings. Everyone has had a busy week and no
one notices when the parents in this book take home the wrong child
at the end of the week.
When Eric's parents took home little monster and Eric went home with
Mr. and Mrs. Monster both sets of parents noticed something was not
right but neither realised they had the wrong child. Eric and little
monster worked out things were not right and were able to fix the
problem and go back to their own home and family. Everything works
out in the end.
This is a fun story about parents not getting everything right all
of the time. Parents are not perfect.
The bold illustrations in this book add to the story. I recommend
this book.
