Great way to end the day!, Nov 22 2008

This review is from: Tickle Monster (Hardcover)
Although we've only had this book for a week, Tickle Monster has already become THE favorite after school AND bedtime story for our daughters (ages 5 and 7). They love the adorable illustrations and can hardly wait to turn the page!
It's a good thing we always read this book on the floor--the girls are always having so much fun and giggling so hard during the story, I'm sure they would just roll off their beds in laughter!
What a great way to end the day!

Tickle Monster Memories, Nov 20 2008
By Kirby Beasley "Kirby" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Tickle Monster (Hardcover)
I recently acquired a copy of this fabulous little book (Tickle Monster) and have really enjoyed reading it to my son before bed. Initially after bringing it home it was not his first choice as he had his favorites that had to be read. Then, one night it was my turn to choose which book we were going to read and I decided that it was going to be Tickle Monster and since then it has become a fast favorite of his. We read it nightly even if he decides he wants to read a Bat Man book first - we always have to read Tickle Monster before he will settle down and go to sleep. And now that the (Tickle Monster Mitts)are available for purchase along with the book we have even more fun.
This is definitely a book that will in fact create memories, but not only for your child but for you as a parent as well. I truly enjoy our time together and now we read Tickle Monster every night and then we play "Tickle Monster" every morning to get him out of bed as well. It is so nice to hear the laughter each night and every morning coming from my favorite "little man".

Tickle Monster is a Giggle Monster at our home, Nov 17 2008
By S. Hager "baseballfan" - Published on Amazon.com

All I have to do is say, "Time for bed - let's read Tickle Monster" and off they go running upstairs giggling all the way (even though I haven't even started tickling them). We have 4 kids and hundreds of books in our house. This one is our family FAVORITE, because it's such a fun way to end the evening after a long day of work and school.
The kids decided they like the Tickle Monster to get Mom too, so I usually get tickled from head-to-toe. Let's just say it's the most interactive, silly, goofy and giggly book on the shelf.
Tickle Monster does a great job of delivering anticipation. As you read through the clever, rythmic rhyming pages, the book builds up to a new body part that you will tickle. Our kids start squirming and laughing before the page is turned knowing that something somewhere is coming - but they don't know what!
I will be giving this book as a gift for future baby showers and birthday parties because it's a rare find that kids will remember for a lifetime.
