Pretty sure they sing a similar song at daycare, but this is the first book Levon reacted to with gestures--touching his head when the monters fall off the bed, shaking his hand like the scolding doctor etc。 He loves it!

Lil Old Bookworm

A twist on the monkeys jumping on the bed, with some interactive fun。 Both my one year old and three year old loved it。

Alyssa Burkman

Cute little bookCute little book that is interactive and love by littles。 My boys loved it and thought it was so cute!

Lauren

Illustrations are great, content is meh。 I did like the part where they say to kiss the monster on the head because I got my son to do it and it was super cute。 Overall 3 stars。

I received an electronic ARC from Sourcebooks Jabberwocky through Edelweiss+。Clever take on the monkeys jumping books。 These five monsters jump on the bed, bump their head and need comfort。 After each falls, readers are invited to offer that comfort in five different ways。 Terrific opportunity for young readers to read along and interact with the story。 Love the expressions on the characters' faces。 I received an electronic ARC from Sourcebooks Jabberwocky through Edelweiss+。Clever take on the monkeys jumping books。 These five monsters jump on the bed, bump their head and need comfort。 After each falls, readers are invited to offer that comfort in five different ways。 Terrific opportunity for young readers to read along and interact with the story。 Love the expressions on the characters' faces。 。。。more

This is a really fun board book to read out loud! An updated version of the Five Little Monkeys with a adorable monster theme。 Instead of Mama calling the doctor, it's Larry and there's a fun interactive component such as patting, pressing, and tickling after each monster bumps its head。 Also a much more satisfying ending: "Let's all play on the floor instead!"

FIVE LITTLE MONSTERS JUMPING ON THE BED is an adorable board book that changes up the classic song just a bit。 The book begins with five little monsters jumping on the bed, until one falls off and bumps its head。 Larry calls the doctor - and we all know what the doctor says。 It then counts down until no monsters are jumping on the bed, and they all play on the floor instead!This board book has a slight twist in that children are instructed to perform an action to help the monsters feel better。 F FIVE LITTLE MONSTERS JUMPING ON THE BED is an adorable board book that changes up the classic song just a bit。 The book begins with five little monsters jumping on the bed, until one falls off and bumps its head。 Larry calls the doctor - and we all know what the doctor says。 It then counts down until no monsters are jumping on the bed, and they all play on the floor instead!This board book has a slight twist in that children are instructed to perform an action to help the monsters feel better。 For instance, they are instructed to pat the monster's head for one and to press on the bandage to help it stick on another。 These added actions give some interactive fun for little ones。This book is simple and absolutely delightful。 The rhythm of the song is fun for infants and toddlers, and the use of the counting down helps to teach numbers and basic subtraction。 The monsters are all adorable, and children will love the bright colors and the interactive nature of the text as they can help the monsters feel better with simple actions。 This is an all-around delight。Highly recommend picking up this board book for infants and toddlers。 With some learning, interactive, and lyrical elements, this one is a definite win!Please note that I received a review copy from the publisher。 All opinions are my own。 。。。more

Yaritza

Such a cute monster book for children。 I loved that it is an interactive book so the kids have prompts to make the monster feel better after they fell from the bed。 The color choices on the monsters were perfect。 They are not scary monster。 Enjoy the story。

I received a review copy from Source Books。 A retelling of a classic child hood favorite。 The illustrations were very kid friendly。 No scary monsters here。 A cute story time for toddlers。

Bea

Cute and funny update on the classic kids song。 I like that each time a monster falls, the book offers a way to help the monster feel better - pat it, kiss it, etc。 The artwork is colorful but spare, not a lot of detail, but filled with motion。

I received a finished copy as part of the Sourcebooks First to Read program without the requirements to write a review。 This board book is fun to read out loud and interactive with readers。 The illustrations are cute--pay attention to the doctor's expressions each spread--these delighted me。 I received a finished copy as part of the Sourcebooks First to Read program without the requirements to write a review。 This board book is fun to read out loud and interactive with readers。 The illustrations are cute--pay attention to the doctor's expressions each spread--these delighted me。 。。。more

This was a sweet read that I received through Early Reads。 I think a child will appreciate the repetition because they can begin to guess the track of the story。 The pictures are action packed and sweet。

April

A fun alternative to the popular book "5 Little Monkeys" featuring Monsters instead。 My favorite part of the story was there were 5 different remedies to each injury to make the monster feel better, which of course we had to do (blow kiss, rub head, tickle to distract from the pain)。 My 3。5 year old loved this bedtime story!

Cute take on the monkeys jumping on the bed theme - with added actions for the child to do as the story progresses - pat the monster, tickle the monster, etc。 Cute colorful illustrations。

My 2 year old granddaughter loves this book。 She knows the 5 little monkeys rhyme so this was easy for her to catch on to。 We both enjoyed the interactive part and we love taking turns reading this to eachother!

Leah Horton

My son is all about monsters and this book was so fun to read with him。 He loves the five little monkeys song。 I loved that it wasn’t “Mommy” but “Larry” caring for these kids。 Let someone else take the blame for all of these rambunctious kids who won’t listen lol。 Really fun。 Really colorful。 A win。

I love Bill Cotter's interactive picture books, and this one did not disappoint his fans with the recurrence of cute little monsters - this time, jumping on the bed as per the old children's rhyme。 After each monster bumps their head, Larry calls the doctor, and the readers are encouraged to interact with the monster to make him/her feel better。 While I like the interactivity, and my two year old is totally into helping monsters feel better, it bothered me that by doing so it broke the rhythm of I love Bill Cotter's interactive picture books, and this one did not disappoint his fans with the recurrence of cute little monsters - this time, jumping on the bed as per the old children's rhyme。 After each monster bumps their head, Larry calls the doctor, and the readers are encouraged to interact with the monster to make him/her feel better。 While I like the interactivity, and my two year old is totally into helping monsters feel better, it bothered me that by doing so it broke the rhythm of the rhyme。 But I might be being picky。 。。。more

A cute book of the Five Little Monsters that jump on the bed。 The book follows the same song we all know, Five Little Monkeys jumping on the bed。 The artwork is fun, and would intrigue a young child。

Larry is very concerned about their we'll-being。 He places a call to the doctor to find out how he can help and console his crying little buddies。 Larry calls the doctor five consecutive times because all five little monsters take a tumble and receive an "ouchie"。 The doctor prescribes a "pat", "a press" and "a tickle" to soothe the little one's injuries and their fractured ego。 Little readers will love being part of the healing process as they get to administer TLC to each aching monster。 Finally Larry figures out that perhaps the bed isn't the best playground for a troupe of wired up little monsters to cavort。 I wonder where he suggests that they play? Hopefully the new site he chooses will keep everyone safe and happy! The illustrations are colourful, very expressive and the characters are adorable。 The book covers a range of emotions that can be discussed and also a conversation can be sparked about safe places to play。 The interactive component of the book will have kids coming back again and again to re-read the story。 I highly recommend this book。 We ones will love it! 。。。more

My three year old granddaughter loves monsters。 She saw this book on my computer and asked me to read it to her。 She knows the song so we actually sang this book together and she did all the actions that were asked in the story。 It took us a few verses to sing "Larry called the doctor" instead of mother, but we really loved this book。 The illustrations were wonderful and she loved the monsters。 She loved this book so much, that I read it over and over to her。 I was ready for her to nap so I coul My three year old granddaughter loves monsters。 She saw this book on my computer and asked me to read it to her。 She knows the song so we actually sang this book together and she did all the actions that were asked in the story。 It took us a few verses to sing "Larry called the doctor" instead of mother, but we really loved this book。 The illustrations were wonderful and she loved the monsters。 She loved this book so much, that I read it over and over to her。 I was ready for her to nap so I could get a break。 I am rating this five stars because she loved it so much。 I will definitely be buying this one for her when it is published。 The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book upon request。 The rating, ideas and opinions shared are my own。 。。。more

*thank you to Netgalley, SOURCEBOOKS Jabberwocky and Bill Cotter for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review*3 stars。This would have been a great book for kids。 It's that fun nursery rhyme that probably most of us know。 But what seemed so out of place was that that rhyme, rhymes but there is more written after each monster is told not to jump on the bed which is not in rhyme。 If you are going to have a rhyming part and a non-rhyming part then there needs to be text to link your two *thank you to Netgalley, SOURCEBOOKS Jabberwocky and Bill Cotter for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review*3 stars。This would have been a great book for kids。 It's that fun nursery rhyme that probably most of us know。 But what seemed so out of place was that that rhyme, rhymes but there is more written after each monster is told not to jump on the bed which is not in rhyme。 If you are going to have a rhyming part and a non-rhyming part then there needs to be text to link your two or something between the words to connect them。 But there isn't so this felt like a bit of a mess to read。On a positive, I loved the illustrations which is where most of my star rating comes from。 This could be a really fun and popular little book but for me, that issue needs to be sorted。 But that's just me。 Maybe others don't see it as a problem。 。。。more

I received a free ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。I absolutely loved this book! The pictures were cute and it was a fun take on the 5 Monkeys。 I also liked that there were interactive things for the kids to do to help the monsters that fell。 So so cute。

Kasey Gilbert Poindexter

Cute illustrations, though content is not original by any means, basically 5 Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed, but with monsters。 However, it has a bit of interaction in it, which is good for a board book。 I also like how the doctor looks more and more frustrated as the story goes on。 *Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an e-copy in exchange for an honest review!*

In this board book, toddlers will delight in that old song about jumping on the bed。 The illustrations are quirky and fun。 As each monster falls, toddlers are invited to help by kissing the monster or putting on a band aid, etc。 Young listeners will enjoy the repetition and soon may be singing themselves!

Lauren Paletta

Great message of the dangers of jumping on the bed and the safety of playing on the floor instead。 Interactive story, colorful illustrations and a wonderful story to read aloud。#5littlemonstersjumpingonthebed#Netgalley
