I got this book for my 15 month old son for Christmas who loves touchy-feely books. He absolutely loves 'That's Not My Monster', and will pick this book out himself to look through on his own. My husband and I also read this book to him several times in one sitting while he flips the pages on his own, and is eager to touch the next monster.The monsters in this book are:- eyebrows that are too hairy- spikes that are too fuzzy- paws that are too bumpy (my personal favorite)- horns that are too rough- ears that are fluffyThe touchy-feely material is a pretty good sized and where there are smaller sections of touch material, those pages do contain multiple little panels of the same material to touch on the monster, such as on the 'rough horns' monster--it has four little panels instead of two large panels of touch material. Overall I am generally pleased with this book. The illustrations are cute and very colorful, and while the story isn't very long, it's a nice addition to my son's growing library.
We have 4 other titles in this series and this is one of the favorites. I bought monsters hoping my child wouldn't become afraid of monsters under his bed--a mother can hope. Some of the texture areas are small, but all cute and all different.
My son is 5 months old. We have been reading him this book for about 2 months now- and he loves it! He will feel each page and will sit through the entire book. Great for textile exploration! Really cute!
Similar to the other books in this series, the pages are very vibrant with a variety of textures for our 10 month old son to enjoy (lick, scratch, pull, etc...) Although some textures do repeat themselves across the series, he can't seem to get enough. We take the books with us on trips and other friends' children (toddlers) love the books as well. We highly recommend owning at least one in the series (or like us, the whole set--spread the love and wear&tear!)
I bought this book for my 8 month old grandson. On the one hand, its his favorite toy/book right now. On the other hand, he protests vigorously if you attempt to read the whole book with him and not just leave it open to his favorite fuzzy page.Update: Four months after purchase its still the favorite, but its a shambles. Baby preferred that the book be disassembled so that he could carry his favorite page or pages around by themselves without the burden of having to carry the entire book. I suggested the possibility of replacing it, but the consensus is that he prefers it disassembled and would just do the same again. I'm going to get one or two others, but fully anticipate that they will meet the same fate.
Gave this book to my grandson for his first birthday. It was a perfect book for his Monster Party theme birthday! He really enjoys touching the pictures and turning the pages. He has several of the Usborne Touchy-Feeling books: "That's not my...___" and enjoys them all! The hardboard book is sturdy and arrived on time. I'm very impressed with the Usborne book company.
my 12 month old seems to like this touchy feely book. wish some of the touchy parts were bigger though--rough horns and fuzzy spikes are pretty small but the monsters are big. he likes to point out the little mouse on each page too.
My six month old LOVES this book. We read it together at least twice a day. She is even turning the pages herself now and once we finish the book she turns it over so we can do it again. Perfect for traveling as it could keep her occupied for up to an hour. I highly recommend this.
