The Great, Messy, Multicoloured, Monstrous, Yarn Monster
by Andrea Pukteris

GENRE: Children’s

BLURB:
What happens to Grandma’s house when she doesn’t tidy up? Well, you’re about to find out. And it’s . . . rather dangerous! Thank goodness Owen and Bandit are there. They have ultra-special skills, but they will have to be extra brave to save the day, and Grandma! Will they win the epic battle?
EXCERPT
Suddenly, Owen felt a slight breeze across his cheek. Something brushed against his leg.
YIKES! He jumped onto a chair.
“Prrrrowwww,” said Grandma’s big black cat, who looked back at Owen like he was crazy.
“Oh, it’s you Bandit.” Owen said.
Bandit pointed to his dish with his paw.
“Prrrowwww?” said Bandit. It was also empty, just like Owen’s cookie plate.
“You neither eh?” Owen said.
Owen patted Bandit’s head and got off the chair. “We better investigate.”
Into the living room they went, it was…different, the living room was very different indeed! It was covered…in…orange fluff!
MY REVIEW
This book is so cute that I can just imagine it as a cartoon. The artwork makes the story come alive. The colors and illustrations are adorable! The children’s book is about a little boy named Owen who drops by to see his Grandma. He looks forward to seeing her after school and before he has to go home and start his homework.
When he knocks on the door, Grandma doesn’t answer and he looks through the house until he finally finds her and she’s in trouble. The Great, Messy, Multicolored, Monstrous, Yarn Monster had her tied up. What could Owen do? He, Grandma, and the cat came up with a plan to escape. This cute book will have children giggling for more!

This book looks charming. It’s nice that it has a boy in it, since it’s hard sometimes to get boys interested in books. I also like that there’s a cat in story. Humorous stories are always fun.
