Copyright: 1999 by Keith Graves

Genre: Picture book

Summary:
Frank was a monster who wanted to dance. He puts on his hat and shoes, and puts ants in his pants. He drove to the theatre and got on stage. The audience loved him! He danced until his brain fell out of his head, his eyeball unscrewed and his arm fell off. The audience started to leave. He danced until his head fell off and then he said to himself “I might be a monster, but man can I dance.

Who would I recommend this to?
I would recommend this book to kids who like dancing and/or monsters. This is my daughter’s favorite book right now. So it seems like girls and boys both will like it.

Potential Problems:
It could be considered gross or scary for children.

My reaction:
At first I thought it was gross, but now I think it’s a cute and fun book.
