The Not Me Monster

The second title in the superbly presented "Willowbe Woods Campfire Stories" picturebook series, The Not Me Monster is a charming tale entertainingly written by Ila Wallen showcasing the theme of honesty and responsibility. When Bunny makes an embarrassing but innocent mistake, she covers up her mortification by inventing a lie. But the lie brings new problems, and eventually, with help from a unicorn friend, she must confront what she's done and learn the value of honesty. The Not Me Monster is a thoroughly engaging story that comes alive with fresh, full color illustrations by Robert Sauber. Also highly recommended is the first title in the series, The Moon In My Room ...

As the mother of a child who sometimes says "Not me," I welcome The Not Me Monster to her library. This is a fun story about how telling the truth is better than making up a fib. And my daughter LOVES the "Find the Frog" game at the end. Plus you offer additional resources to parents through your Web site. Bravo. It's nice to see some publishers truly understand parents and children.

I realy liked the Not Me Monster. There was a monster in the woods. Bunny chased it away. She learned to tell the truth. It is easyr then your friends geting mad at you. I like the froggy game at the end. This is a good book. I think my friends and cuzins would like it.
