Just as she made the fish of Happy uniquely hers, here she uses monsters to show different situations--they cuddle, laugh, play, but they also fight, tease and more--making the images recognizable for little monsters of all ages.

From School Library Journal
PreS-Gr 2-A dozen words describe the various feelings and actions that friends sometimes experience. Colorful childlike drawings of two monsters or other funny-looking creatures inhabit each spread. Done in ink and oil pastels, the rough-hewn illustrations on a black background cleverly explore playfulness, boredom, teasing, fighting, making up, cuddling, and so on. Each spread pictorially describes one word. This book has a lot of child appeal, and no doubt youngsters will choose a favorite monster they can relate to. This short book will pair well in storytimes with other picture books about friendship, including Salina Yoon's Penguin and Pinecone (Walker) and Jenni Desmond's Red Cat, Blue Cat (Blue Apple, both 2012).-Roxanne Burg, Orange County Public Library, CAα(c) Copyright 2013.
