The monster roars, makes a mess and becomes angry after being tied up. The pictures keep these moments playful, but the disguise and trapping may merit a quick check-in with a sensitive child.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the book’s treatment of its main themes is not yet firm enough.
