Changes

'In the blink of a googly eye … everything changed.'

This really is a heart warming story and one that shows that hopefully every creature, however unattractive they might appear at first sight, will find someone to love them. It is also quite thought-provoking for young children as the story demonstrates what it might feel like to be a bit different and to feel left out. When we read the book, both my daughters felt sorry for the little monster but they did actually find him quite cute too. This is really due to the fabulous illustrations which are bright and bold and provide the monster with both a hideous appearance and a certain charm.
