Editorial Reviews

From Kirkus Reviews

Children who lack the vocabulary to distinguish the emotions they're feeling may find some comfort in this book, which makes use of masks to unmask feelings. Each spread shows little brightly colored monsters acting out different emotions--pink monsters cut out valentines and bake cookies to express love, yellow monsters play ball and open birthday presents in the name of happiness--while a gatefold page reveals a big mask of whatever emotion is covered in that spread. The eyes and noses are punched out, so children can hold those pages up and ``wear'' the mask. It's a good idea, but easier in theory; the book is heavy for the young children at whom the book is aimed, and older ones will find it hard to put on the mask, read the book, and keep the pages intact; institutions should expect rips and stock multiple copies. The book has a use, whether teaching the names of emotions, or helping children express them. (Picture book. 3- 8) -- Copyright ©1997, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.

    I grew up in a house filled with books. My grandmother was in the book business many years ago. My mother was an editor and writer for more than 50 years. My sister is an award-winning book designer and my son is a writer/illustrator. It's a family thing. At the moment, my son and I are working on several new projects. We have launched a YouTube channel and are creating picture books for young children and a series of comic books for middle grade readers.

    I hope you enjoy Glad Monster, Sad Monster, a collaboration with Caldecott Award winning illustrator Ed Emberley. This colorful monster book, complete with tear out and storable masks has been translated into French and Spanish and is used world-wide to help children identify and cope with their feelings. It's well-loved by parents and teachers alike. To Market, To Market illustrated by Janet Stevens is a classic in the classroom and a favorite with children.

    My newest book, Tangled is published by Simon & Schuster, A Paula Wiseman Book and illustrated by Eric Comstock. The book is about some playful little shapes that get tangled up in a jungle gym and the community effort to free them. It's a fun read-aloud with a mathematics theme for home and school. So far, it's a big hit with teachers and librarians!

I have a student who loved “Go Away, Monster” and so I purchased this to add to my collection. This story is a bit wordy, but the photos are fun and he enjoyed flipping through it. I would love to see it made more durable as the pages that open are sure to rip quickly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for fun and also for learning emotional intelligence.
Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2014
Verified Purchase
My son loves this book, and I think it helps a lot with his emotional intelligence.

The masks come out and there is a pocket in the back to hold them in. Of course they still get left out and ripped up, though. But it's nice that they thought of the pocket. We tried very hard to keep them safe for a couple of weeks!

My son and I will reference what color monster we feel like sometimes to help express our feelings. I can ask him what color monster he feels like when he seems a little overwhelmed with emotion, which helps him to stop and reflect on his feelings so we can better address the problem. It's also a little more meaningful when I tell him, for example, that I feel like the blue monster because he is jumping on me and it hurts.

Also, and this was of his own design, he uses his "monster friends" to help protect him from his blinds. The tree outside his window sometimes scrapes his window, so he's afraid of his blinds. But he'll call his monster friends and/or lay their masks around his bed to help him feel safe. He prefers the green monster, to better scare off whatever is scaring him.

This is such a cute book. I separated the monster faces and we can read it as a family. Papa reads, kiddo helps read, and I hide behind each mask of emotion. This a great book to read with toddlers and I recommend to the mothers for their kids for sure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Muy interesante para trabajar las emociones en inglés
Reviewed in Spain on October 20, 2020
Verified Purchase
Conocía este libro en castellano y quería la versión en inglés ya que me gusta bastante y en general a los niños también les gusta.
Se trata de un libro para trabajar las emociones, yo al contarlo modifico algo del vocabulario para hacerlo más reconocible por los niños (lo cuento a niños de hasta 7 años).
Es atractivo tanto por los dibujos de los monstruos como por las caretas que te vas poniendo al contarlo (y que les encanta cuando pueden ellos manejar el libro y jugar con las caretas). Es sencillo de entender y además de trabajar las emociones se trabajan algunos colores.
Puntos a favor:
- Contenido del propio libro.
- Las caretas de los monstruos con sus expresiones.
Puntos a mejorar:
- Las narices de las caretas se despegan con facilidad, hay que pegarlas.
