The stuff of pure fantasy - I loved it! One of those books I wish I could've read for the first time when I was like 11 years old. Aside from the quirky illustrations, I think my fave was the imaginative twists on reality, like "Oil of Brussels" used as a weapon. Because what kid thinks of Brussels sprouts as anything other than parent-sanctioned poison? Be warned: No matter what age, you will giggle A LOT whilst reading Here Be Monsters! (And if you don't, why the hay would you pick this book up in the first place?!) Although I found this book to be a bit long for its intended age level, the characters are charming and the story is adorable. This is a nice story for children who want that bigger book with more pages. The short chapters help to make it very readable and the story itself will keep the pages turning. no reviews | add a review
