Willis, Jeanne Blue Monster Wants It All!
Illustrated by Jenni Desmond. PICTURE BOOK. Tiger Tales,
2018. $17. 9781680100778.
Blue Monster doesn’t like anything old. He keeps complaining and screaming to get his
way and buys new things to make himself happier. Then one day he finally realizes that he
misses something old very much.
I was enjoying this book up until the moment the blue
monster swallowed the sun – up until then everything had been improbably, but
not actually impossible. The sun things
was just a bit much. This take on the
Prodigal Son story doesn’t quite make it.
