Hee hee. This is a hoot. This is a perfect book for older siblings and children who will soon have a baby brother or sister join the household. I say ages 3 to 7 because by age 8, kids will want a more sophisticated book and kids younger than age 2-1/2 or 3 are not likely to understand enough to get a kick out of the book.

The illustrations look a bit old school now, but the story is great for older siblings who aren't exactly pleased by the arrival of a younger brother or sister. I did this as part of a monster-themed storytime.

It was scary. Favorite part: When the monster baby tried to eat the judge.
