Book Review: The Monster at the End of this Book

The Monster at the End of this Book (Big Little Golden Book)The Monster at the End of this Book by Jon Stone

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is one of my husband's favorite books from childhood, so he had to pick up a copy for Peep's personal collection. I was never a big Grover fan. Not that I had anything against the blue fur ball, I was just more into the Fraggles than the Muppets when I was younger. But Emma loves the Sesame Street gang, and I'm always up for a new book, so I had no problem adding this one to our bedtime book list.

I laughed out loud. It was just so silly, so panic!!!!! ridden, and so - well - Grover, that I couldn't help myself.

Peep thinks it's hilarious, too. I've taken to reading it in a panicky, ridiculous sort of voice that garners additional giggles, and she's just starting to get into the fun, adding fake scared faces and dramatic "Oooh nooooos!" at select moments. It's just so much fun to read, and it's created such wonderfully silly moments in our house that I couldn't give it anything less than a perfect rating.
