Summary

This uniquely layered die-cut board book featuring a hungry monster provides hours of finger-play fun for parents and toddlers!

For lunch today I have a fine treat: five little fingers for Monster to eat!

In this silly playtime rhyme, young readers will burst into giggles as they fit their fingers through die-cut holes and make them wiggle and squirm! Parents play the part of the monster and "eat up" their laughing little one's fingers, turning the pages to make the holes disappear one by one until there are no wigglers left. If they're willing to risk it, brave parents will do it all over again with their own fingers, letting the child play the monster!

This interactive book will have little monsters squirming with giggles!

Publisher's Weekly Review

The five die-cut holes in this board book are just the right size to slip one's fingers into; unfortunately, that makes them a ready meal for the cute but hungry monster inside. "Delectable digits for nibbling and crunching./ Scrumptious wigglers perfect for munching," writes newcomer Lewis in verse with the rollicking rhythms of a nursery rhyme. As fingers fall victim to the blue, pink-winged monster, the number of holes decreases until no fingers remain. Gross-out details ("Let's take a first lick. Is that earwax I taste?") and the subversive setup will almost certainly lead to giggles. And bite marks. Up to age 3. Author's agent: Duvall Osteen, Aragi Inc.
