My 5-year old picked this book out at the book store a week and a half ago and since then, she and her brother have read it every day, twice a day. I really enjoy reading this book to my children and they really do love this book. (My 19-month old toddler sits all the way through the book each and every time.) Not only is it educational but it's a real joy to read even for a "grown-up". M is for Monster covers the 26 letters of the alphabet with fun poetry and beautiful illustrations. I was very pleasantly surprised to find such engaging pictures in a three-dollar children's book. I'm going to buy M for all my nieces and nephews for Christmas. I wasn't planning on taking the kids to watch Monsters, Inc. on opening weekend (we usually wait a week or two) but, after my family's reaction to this book, there's no way we're waiting. I highly recommend M is for Monster for kids of all ages!
My daughter, 22 months, fell in love with the Monsters Inc. and Monsters University movies. This is a perfect addition for a child who likes the Monsters Inc.franchise. It has the characters from Monsters Inc. and doesn't include anything from Monster's University.Each page is dedicated to the letters of the alphabet and how they pertain to the movie. Such as "C" is for Celia etc. But what is really cute is that it rhymes. Nice little bonus. The rhyming helps the flow of the book and keep my kid entertained.Of course, anything educational is a bonus so I love the alphabet format that includes my daughter's favorite movie!I agree that the age group for this book, 1-3, would've been better if they made this into a board book. Therefore I knock a star off my rating.Otherwise, such a cute and fun read!
This book is adorable for a child learning the alphabet. My son has been obsessed with Monsters Inc. so this book is a perfect choice. He will easily let me read this to him because he already knows the characters. It makes practicing the ABCs easy. I would definitely recommend it, especially if you have a kiddo who enjoys Monsters Inc.
My two year old loves Monsters Inc. Since we limit TV time at our house, I thought that getting him some books about the movie would be a happy compromise when he wants to watch, and I want to get him away from "the box." He was thrilled to read M is for Monster. The book is written from Mike's point of view. So it starts out with Mike at a drawing board saying, "A is for author. I write AND I'm cute." It goes on to feature several characters from the movie: Boo, Celia, George, Sully. The story itself is written in rhyme. The illustrations are simple but colorful. It's a great book. My only complaint is that it only comes in paperback. It's rather flimsy. I would love to see this as a board book. But even as-is, I think it's definitely worth the money.
I loved Golden Books as a child so naturally as a new dad I have been creating a collection of goldenbooks for my daughter.This particular book is one of my favorites to read to my daughter. It's a great start for my daughter to learn the alphabet and the book reads nicely as everything rhymes. My daughter is 8 months old so some of the other golden books with more dialogue are lost on her as her attention span is only about 5 minutes. So this is a good book for younger children about 3+ months and up.
Super cute book! My daughter loves anything Monsters Inc/Monsters University so this was a must for her! She really enjoys pointing out the letters of the alphabet and the illustrations are too cute!
A very cute book, but flimsy. The pages are thin paper, just stapled into the glossy cardstock cover. overall, it is ok but it might not last long with most kids.
This book is cheap. Cute, but cheap. I was expecting a board book, and the content would have been just right for one. It's paperback, with two staples in the middle. I think $...would have been a fair price, especially since I had to reiforce our copy with tape before I could let our 20-month toddler have it. She does enjoy it, and the art is cute, but I felt cheated by the poor quality.
