Slonim, David I Loathe You 24
pgs. Candlewick, 2012. $10.87. (Rating: G)
Big Monster
explains how much it loathes Little Monster and vice versus. From "more than
Bellyaches" to "more than slimy rats", a lyrical list that continues through large
colorful illustrations. Little monster worries that if he cleans up and gets
cute that all of Big Monster loathing will go away! But luckily Big Monster can
reassure Little Monster with its unconditional loathing!
Students will
love this laugh out loud silly book of loathing. Not only does it provide vocabulary
opportunities, a lesson on opposites, but also a boy-friendly valentine’s day
book. The illustrations quite large and sure to keep attention during a story
time activity.
