Happy Birthday, Monster!

A sweet treat for Halloween, birthdays, or any time of the year!

From the author-illustrator of Little House, Little Town comes a warm and funny tale with an unusual cast of characters. Ben the monster has planned a surprise party for Doris the dragon’s birthday. At this unforgettable monster bash, the birthday dragon blows on her candles to light them, the robot is a little too enthusiastic about hitting the birthday piñata, and the host monster finds horns an impediment in a game of trampoline.

Each spread, illustrated in panels, contains its own discreet episode and joke, perfect for little children to linger over. The visual-based humor is ideal for kids too young to read, while the brief, accessible text encourages those just learning to decode words. Once again, Scott Beck proves he has just the right sensibility for the preschool set in this gem of a book.
