A little monster gets very mad when he feels that everyone gets what they want . . . apart from him. “And what about me?” he continually asks. Everyone gets bigger portions of cake (Little Monster even measures his portions) and they get the presents they ask for, but he is treated like a baby—that’s because HE IS a baby, albeit a baby monster. He has a fit of jealousy at just about everything, until he gets pampered and forced into a hug which makes his brothers and sisters feel very jealous and makes our little monster, very happy. A great picture book to encourage emotional resilience and explore the emotions of jealousy.
Meet an impatient monster with serious anger management issues!The Great Grrrrr works for an express delivery service. A monster on a mission, he must deliver a package to a cottage in the country. But, when the recipient isn't home, he becomes increasingly frustrated and then angry. Just when he has destroyed the cottage out of an explosive bout of rage, the homeowner shows up and everything changes. The Great Grrrrr learns to manage his anger issues and finds patience and perhaps a new perspective on life. This hilariously entertaining book takes frustration and impatience to a ridiculous extreme and finds humor in uncontrolled emotions no toddler will fail to recognize. Expressively illustrated by Marjolaine Leray in sketchy crayon drawings with bright neon second color to accent the visual drama.
