Loading... Go Away, Big Green Monster! (1992)by Ed Emberley
None. A charming, simple deconstruction of scary, bedtime monsters, whether under the bed, in the closet or behind the door. I hesitate to criticize Ed Emberley but this could have been designed better. The cut-out and layering of the monster and the empowerment to dismember the monster is great, but when you tell the big green face layer to go away, and you turn the page and it's supposed to be gone, the face is indeed gone but the green remains. This is true of each layer. But the kids and I liked that I looked at them through the eye holes and then put my nose in the nose hole. I would use this book to help teach children to face their fears, This book is all about teaching kids to face their fears and also show them that monsters are not real. This book is about facing your fears, and it teaches children that monsters are not real.
This is a great resource when talking about feelings. It is a fun good to utilize at Halloween time and monsters.
