The Monstore

32 pp. | Simon/Aladdin | June, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4424-2017-5 $16.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by James Burks. Zack purchases a monster from the Monstore to frighten his pesky sister. But the beast teams up with Gracie instead--"No returns. No exchanges." More failed monster purchases ensue until Zack heroically faces something truly scary for Gracie. The joke goes on too long, but a colorful parade of not-so-scary monsters recalling those of the film Monsters, Inc. keeps things funny.
Reviewer: Carrie Harasimowicz Sullivan
