Moin And The Monkey Monster

'The monster was a menace when it was around and a menace when it was not.'
The monster has gone, and Moin is not sure how he feels about it. He's happy that he doesn't have to listen to the monster's songs but he's so sick of the bananas that keep piling up! And he still has to sing at Loopy Bagiri's concert. If only the monster would come back and sing for him!

But then the monster does come back and Moin's life goes bananas again.
Caution: Do not eat while reading this book.

This third book in the celebrated Moin and the Monster series has been eagerly awaited. Moin and the Monster was published twenty years ago.

Anushka Ravishankar, often called the Indian Dr Suess, has been a pioneer in writing both nonsense in contemporary English in India and also picture books. Some of the earliest Indian picture books to be published internationally and win international awards were by her, such as Tiger on a Tree, Catch that Crocodile and Elephants Never Forget. She has gone on to collaborate with many international illustrators to create some extraordinary picture books.

More recently, her chapter books have also been much loved, such as Moin and the Monster and the Zain and Ana series. She is also the co-founder of the much acclaimed indie publishing house, Duckbill.

The blend of humour, realism and nonsense in Anushka's writing, as well as the charm of the characters she creates has won her many fans in India and internationally.
