Alphabet Monsters Book 1

"The Alphabet Monsters" love to go on vacation! Sometimes, they go on vacation with another letter monster, sister, or brother. Other times, they go on their own. They may go to the pond or a swamp. Sometimes, a desert is a place to be, even when it is hot. They may even visit a museum that looks like a mausoleum. Whether trekking through the jungle, counting monkeys, or digging up worms to fish, these alphabet monsters have fun wherever they go! They have grand adventures, but as the summer slips away, they realize it is time to return to Monster School. Each of them is unique, but when they work together, they can make beautiful words that rhyme, build stories, and tell extraordinary stories. They genuinely are monster friends, sisters, and brothers.
