Editorial Reviews

Review

The birthday child looks very much like a hippopotamus. Her friends, the birthday monsters, arrive just after dawn, bring presents, make a wonderful mess and clean it up. Part of an appealing new board-book series. -- New York Times Book Review, 3/13/94

From the Publisher

The Boynton Board books are compact treasures just right for little kids. Each book is replete with full-color drawings and comes with a die-cut cover. Also in the series are: ONE, TWO, THREE!, a rhyming number primer presented by all sorts of animals; BARNYARD DANCE!, a sing-along book set on the farm; and OH MY OH MY OH DINOSAURS!, where dinosaurs present kids with an easy way to learn all about opposites.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best birthday book ever!, September 29, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Birthday Monsters! (Boynton on Board) (Board book)
I bought this book for my daughter's first birthday recently. We both love it! The first time I read it I couldn't help laughing at the story. The illustrations are so eye catching and colorful. I would recommend this book if you have a birthday party coming up for almost any age!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Book for Birthdays, with learning opportunities, May 16, 2000

This review is from: Birthday Monsters! (Boynton on Board) (Board book)
This is a fun book about birthdays that is great for children; it is equally entertaining for any adult who's given a party for toddlers or less-than-gracious guests! My 2-year-old loves it; it's aimed at a slightly older child than some of the Boynton standards, such as "Barnyard Dance." In addition, it offers parents the opportunity to discuss what happens at birthday parties, good vs. bad monsters/behavior, and - with older children - how to be a good guest.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great children's book from as early as age 1!, April 11, 2003
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Birthday Monsters! (Boynton on Board) (Board book)
I bought this book for my neice's first birthday, and she loves it! The pictures are wonderful, and the text is written in Boynton's usual melodic style--my neice certainly seemed to respond to the sound of others reading the words to her. The story describes five birthday monsters arriving and taking over on "your" birthday; although the monsters themselves aren't scary, young children who can comprehend the story might become upset by certain scenes (eg, the monsters eat all "your" cake!)--but of course, there is a happy ending. An engaging, fun story for young children.
