Reach for this book when your child is starting to express fears about imaginary monsters or is feeling intimidated by things they don't quite understand. It is an excellent tool for demystifying the 'scary' by showing how appearances can be deceiving and how humor is a powerful antidote to anxiety. The story follows Dan Dog and Tabby Cat as they play a clever trick using Red Fox's clothes to create a 'monster' that scares the other forest animals, and eventually Red Fox himself. Through this playful deception, children see that what looks like a monster is often just a friend in a silly costume. It is a gentle, humorous read for children ages 3 to 7 that models how to reclaim power in a scary situation through creativity and play.
