About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling those first-day jitters or if they have a fascination with things that go bump in the night. It is a perfect choice for reframing the concept of monsters from scary creatures into silly, relatable classmates who have to learn their ABCs just like human children do. Through clever rhymes and vibrant illustrations, the story follows twenty-six monsters through a typical school day. It hits on themes of belonging and routine, making the classroom feel like a space for everyone, no matter how many eyes or horns they have. Parents will appreciate the way it builds letter recognition and vocabulary while gently diffusing fears of the unknown. It is ideally suited for preschoolers and early elementary students who are mastering the alphabet and navigating the social dynamics of school.
