What About Me?

A little monster gets very mad when he feels that everyone gets what they want . . . apart from him.

“And what about me?” he continually asks.

Everyone gets bigger portions of cake (Little Monster even measures his portions) and they get the presents they ask for, but he is treated like a baby—that’s because HE IS a baby, albeit a baby monster. He has a fit of jealousy at just about everything, until he gets pampered and forced into a hug which makes his brothers and sisters feel very jealous and makes our little monster, very happy.
 
A great picture book to encourage emotional resilience and explore the emotions of jealousy.
