review 1: I really enjoy this story, but it definitely went over better with the older kids. I don’t think the little ones quite understood the concept that Bernadette the monster didn’t fit in with her monster peers because she was sweet and enjoyed things like baking and petting kittens. The delightfully yucky cards she made for them said things like “Roses are red, Violets are Blue, In this card I went ‘Achoo!'” These lines didn’t get quite the laughter and gross-out effect I was going for. Aside from that, I appreciate the book’s message that it’s okay to be unique and you can still find a way to fit in while being true to yourself.
review 2: Bernadette may look like a monster (equipped with fangs, claws, two toes and a creepy necklace) but underneath... more she is a very sweet person who likes kittens, flowers and baking. When Bernadette begins Monster Academy, she is a bit concerned about fitting in with her classmates. Things do get off to a rocky start when Bernadette tries to get the monsters to participate in a group hug but she learns quickly how to reach out and make friends with her classmates and still be unique. less
