Donde viven los monstruos

Im twenty one and i bought this book for my four year old sister. I was a little worried because my little sister only speaks spanish and i was worried about the transaltion of the book. I wanted it to have the same mood the english book had. but i had nothing to worry about. the translation is really good and its my little sister's favorite book! She loves it with a passion. lol!! As i was reading it to her the first couple times, she was mesmorized and i could tell her imagination was trying to wrap itself around the story line. Anyways i recomend this to everyone. great book. great illustrations.

I bought this book for my daughter when she was 12 months. Incredibly enough, she memorized it before she was two. She is now five years old, and I now have another 1 year old daughter. She also loves the book and requests that I read it to her every night.

I don't believe this book was in any way meant to be a "good parenting guide." I believe it was simply a story of a little boy who got himself into trouble, was angry at his mother and with nothing else to do in his room, he lets his imagination roam. In the end he realized he could have the best adventures far away, but he still misses the one person who loves him more than anybody else, his mother. I think this is a really good message for kids to learn, especially those who get into trouble more than usual. :)

My son is 4 years old and afraid of the dark and monsters. He enjoys reading this book (me reading it to him) since he likes the character actually visiting the monsters and overcoming them. I think its a great book for kids his age.

This was one of my favorite books growing up. I'm glad I was able to get it for my daughter in Spanish. The translation is accurate and consistent with the story as it is in English. Truly a classic!

This is one of the best books my daughter has. The translation is perfect...my daughter loves it!!! The illustrations are excellent and she totally gets the point of the story which is not to be afraid of monsters because they are probably more afraid of her 8-)
