Such a cute and fun read for my five year old. He loved the illustrations and was interested in this book just by looking at the cover. He laughed at all the right parts and immediately wanted to read it again once we were finished. Five stars from both of us!

We were lucky enough to receive a copy of this lovely children's book to read! It is such a good book to share with little children. My son is nearly 4 and absolutely loves monsters and all things spooky, which is why this book was such a good choice. He loved looking at the pictures and got really excited about what would happen next. This is a really fun book to share with the little ones.

This book was adorable and would be a great book for kids that have new babies in the house. The artwork was fun and the words were simple and fun to read. This would be a great boardbook!

Author Nicholas Tana shows young readers what Monsters are truly afraid of; babies. Designed for readers up to age five, this colorful kids book goes after the greatest fear that so many young children have about monsters in closets or under their beds. A little boy and his baby sister discover all the reasons babies are just so scary to monsters.
Monsters Are Afraid of Babies is adorable, with colorful illustrations and a rhyme scheme to encourage regular reading.
Monsters Are Afraid of Babies is available now from New Classics Books.

This was a great bedtime story for both children and parents! Funny and clever, we both loved the rhymes, pictures and the message.

This lovely picture book has some gorgeous illustrations. I absolutely loved the artwork inside it – it was so colourful and so detailed. The monsters really popped off the page to me.
I love how creative this book is – how the “monsters” are afraid of how loud and smelly the main character’s baby sister is!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like this before, and it was such a joy to read.
I think any young child who is suddenly a big sibling, or a child who is afraid of monsters in the closet can enjoy this book.
