My Daddy is a Monster Natalie Reeves Billing 5*#Review @BillingReeves #Ilustrator Lisa Williams @RandomTTours #BlogTour #BookReview #kidlit #ChildrensBooks #MonstrousMe #MyDaddyisaMonster

The Monstrous Me collection are split perspective books looking at situations from other points of view, helping children develop a sense of balance, roundedness and wellbeing. Readers can literally and figuratively, turn the story on its head, and look at the very same situations from different angles. In this second book, ‘My Daddy is a Monster’ a curious little boy is convinced his dad is a monster. But, is he really? When we look through his dad’s eyes, we see a very different story.

My Thoughts…

The second in the Monstrous Me series sees things from a man’s perspective. Daddy is happy to share the domestic duties and parenting, but his children don’t appreciate his efforts. Then you can flip the book over and see how the kids see their daddy. This book helps children to see things from both sides, appreciate that there is more than one way of seeing something.

Rhyming text and vivid fantasy illustrations engage children who love to use their imaginations. It’s a read that appeals to children and parents with multi-layered humourous situations familiar to parents.

My grandson loves these books because of the monsters, so he learns as he laughs.
