This has been the favorite book of our 15 month old daughter since we bought it 5 months ago. In addition to feeling the different textures of all the different "monsters", she especially loves looking and laughing at herself in the mirror on the last page. Her 22 month old cousin loved it so much that we bought him one for his birthday too. Guaranteed hit with little boys and girls.

I have never seen my kids go as nuts for a book as they did for this one. In the space of an hour, my 1 1/2 year old had me read it 6 times and my husband read it 6 times. Our 2 1/2 year old is just as crazy about it, which was actually a problem because of the fights that ensued. We have had the book a whole week and have to keep it hidden so that they will actually read something else! The touch and feel combined with flaps and great illustrations is apparently a potent combination.

Santa Claus brought my daughter this book for her first Christmas (10 months old). Of the many books that she has, this is by far her favorite. She loves to touch and feel the different pages. She can easily find the "touch" part of each page and she especially loves the mirrored page at the end. I'm currently online now looking for more books just like this one.

My 8-month old has loved this book since we got it three months ago. He reaches out to touch the monsters and he loves the last page with the mirror. It costs a little more than other baby books but is definitely worth it.

We got this book for my son when he was 6 months old. He was absolutely fascinated with the red hair on the cover monster and with the sparkly texture on one of the other monsters.

He is 9 month now and loves the surprise of the monsters under the flaps. It been a great book that keeps his attention while I read it to him!

The pictures are cute and colorful and as an adult I find that it is fun to read this book to him.

We bought this for my daughter's first birthday. She immediately loved turning the flaps to find the monsters and pet all the different textures. It's been a couple of months now and it's still one of her favorite books! She sits and turns the pages on her own and loves kissing her reflection in the mirror at the end. A great book I'd recommend to anyone!

I bought this along with about 6 other books for my neice when she was just about a year or so. She has yet to put this one down! It's the perfect size for toddlers as well as very engaging. The premise of the book is that not only is it touch and feel but the toddler has to find where the monsters are hiding. For instance, one hides behind the couch, another under the table, and another in the bathroom cabinet. (My neice now checks all those places to see if her monster friends are hiding there :) Each montster also has a 'feel' soft and fuzzy, coarse, smooth, etc. They are also brightly colored so she works on her colors as well. Overall its a great book and I would highly recommend it.

I was worried about dropping the feeding right before bed. We switched from reading Goodnight Moon to this book before bed, and he didn't even notice there was no bottle because he was so interested in all the great textures. He loves it so much I bought others as gifts for friends!

This is my toddler's favorite book. She loves the last page especially, where there's a mirror, and she kisses her reflection. She loves to pet all the monsters, and she brings it to me to read over and over. A cute book--we both adore it!

There's a surprise at the end of this book that makes my 19 month old toddler laugh hysterically every time he turns the page. This book is adorable. The fuzzy characters make this story interactive and the length is perfect for short attention spans or a quick read before night night. This one is a must for every toddler library!
