"Finally a book that shows the positive role of grandparents in a young child’s life. More and more in today’s society grandparents are taking an active role in child rearing. The Monster Run addresses that role and also helps children learn that love is stronger than monsters. This is one to add to your bedtime story collection."

"The Monster Run is the perfect bedtime story for children of ‘things that go bump in the night.’ Children of all ages relate to this familiar theme. I think you find Mrs. B’s solution to the age-old problem of how to reassure children who are afraid of the dark both unique and heartwarming. Surely, as every monster knows, the strength of a Papa’s love will last forever. The Monster Run is a must-read for the inner child in us all."
