Summary: According to my son, Mr. Schnitzlein "rocks"!
Comment: My family and I were fortunate enough to get to meet Mr. Schnitzlein at a ceremony at my son's school and hear a live reading of the book. My 11-year old son, one of the oldest kids present, begged for a copy of his own (although it is really written for a younger age group)! We thoroughly enjoyed the book as well as Mr. Schnitzlein's very entertaining presentation and the "writer's workshop" he gave to the children. The characters in his book (even the monster) are as warm and inviting as the author himself. The plot kept even the adults on the edge of their seats, and the laughter never stopped from first page to last. We can hardly wait for the next book to emerge from the very creative mind of this author.

Summary: Terrific Imagination
Comment: I just bought this book and my son, who's 5, and loved it. He's already requesting it to be read over and over. Loved the rhymes.
Looking forward to the next book by this author.

Summary: Please Read it Again!
Comment: The rhyme, the subject and the illustrations are a perfect marriage in this book. Children ask for it to be read over and over again. They clamor at the end that there's more monsters waiting for him to trade again. And then they are eager to share just what they'd be willing to trade in order to not have to clean the toilet or eat their liver or whatever disgusts them. It's a great story to break the ice with kids and even to read using voices.
Publishers Weekly has no clue about what appeals to kids- the Lima Bean Monster is a shelf sitter and the illustrations do nothing to excite kids about the story. Use this book instead and your kids will be begging for another story like it. I can't wait to see the new book being published by this author and hope the illlustrator will be right there with him to turn kids into readers.
