I loved this book when I was little. I liked seeing Little Monster's house. I remember the mint jelly in his pantry and wondering who would eat mint jelly. I remember looking at the print on the inside of the back cover and wondering where I could live in his town. Sadly, this is out of print, and I couldn't even believe it came up as a book on Goodreads, as I haven't been able to find it elsewhere. Just a stupid, cheap, Little Golden Book softcover, but I loved it.

I have loved this book since I used to read it to C when she was a toddler! :) - "This is my room. No one is allowed in here, except Mom and Pop, and my pet and my best friend. Not even my sister."

Simple, but with busy, colourful illustrations which would be fun to talk about.

Mercer Mayer is best known for Little Critter. But did you know he also wrote about Little Monster? This first book is a simple look at Little Monster’s home and life. Great for fans and newbies alike.

Meh. I find it boring and the little monsters not particularly cute. Will put in give away pile.

I loved this book when I was little and am happy to report that I stole it before my dad donated all our old children's books to D.I.

This is just as good as the Little Critter books.
