Generations of kids have interacted with lovable, furry old Grover as he begs the reader not to turn the page—for fear of a monster at the end of the book. “Oh, I am so embarrassed,” he says on the last page . . . for, of course, the monster is Grover himself! This all-time favorite is now available as a Big Little Golden Book—perfect for lap-time reading. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Spoilers! So it turns out that the "monster" is actually the protagonist which, while having shades of postmodern antihero angst that wil reverberate strongly with fans of, say, Kafka or Burroughs, really threw me for a loop as a kid. My two year old, on the other hand, has no problem with this conceit, and wants me to read it to him regularly. He'll understand how cruel this all is when he get a bit older. Oh yes. In the meantime, I'll read it for him ... Read More Rating: - Timeless ClassicWhen I was little this was my favorite book. We would read it over and over, and I would pretend I was struggling to turn the pages that Grover had tied, nailed, and bricked over.

I read the pages, then she turns them to give poor old ...

Grover believes that there is a monster at the end of this book and he is begging you, the reader, not to read to the end because he is scared of the monster. This is a wonderful book for toddlers. When toddlers are defying you at every second, this book gives them a great, fun excuse to be defiant and keep turning pages. The Monster at the End of this Book is very easy to read and is ideal ... Read More Rating: - Fun Book for Pre-SchoolersI used to read this book to my own children and bought this copy for my grandchildren. The book is still as much fun for the grandchildren as it was for my children -- and the best part is I get to watch my children enjoy reading it to their children! It means they have fond memories of me reading to them. Rating: - Great Children's bookI received great service and the book was promptly delivered. This book was read to me as a child and to my children when they were little. I purchased it to read to my grandaughter which I have happily done. It's a great "fun" book for children.
