Description
This book teaches the basic concept of using manners and saying, "Excuse me."
Quick Summary
Meet the monster who thinks shouting is the fastest way to get what he wants until a tiny, repeated "Excuse me" turns his chaotic day around. The story is super short (just 232 words), with bright cartoon pictures that make the monster look more goofy than scary, perfect for kids who might be wary of monsters. Each page shows a new scenario like interrupting a game, bumping into a friend, or squeezing into a tight spot where a polite interruption fixes everything, making it easy for little ones to see why manners matter. It's ideal for early readers in K-3 who are just starting to grasp social skills, especially reluctant readers who'll love the humor and the monster's silly mistakes. Parents will love that the lesson comes without a lecture, and the simple, repetitive text lets kids practice reading while they're learning politeness. If your child liked the "Please Say Please" series or other basic manners books, this monster's quick, funny lesson is a great next read.
