When Monster meets Puppet, they decide to put on a show. Puppet knows what Monster should do! Monster should tell a joke! Monster should dance! Monster should sing! But the more Monster does, the more Puppet wants MORE. What should Monster do when The Monster and Puppet Show! is not fun any ... MORE!?!

Kate Micucci's vibrant pop art and humorous storytelling cleverly explore themes of friendship, peer pressure, boundaries, and self-preservation. This funny beginning reader, for kids ages 4 to 8, supports early reading skill-building and is an ideal read-aloud book.
