Review Quotes

Children will also enjoy the soft palette and fuzzy lines of the silkscreen illustrations that create each unusual and highly expressive monster. The mixture of traditional and fantastical travel methods skillfully introduces a bevy of vocabulary. Savvy caregivers will also appreciate the imaginative conversations that this story opens, and the sturdy board-book design means that it will be around for many rereads as toddlers consider how they would like to travel. . . . These monsters will happily take you places!
