My Teacher is a Monster! (No, I am not) Paperback – July 14, 2016 by Peter Brown (Macmillan Children's Books)



My children love this book at circle time. I change it up and switch out my name for Ms Kirby and they giggle even more. A teacher is compared to a monster for not letting a boy throw paper airplanes but when they see each other on a weekend outside of school their relationship changes for the better. It's super cute and the kids enjoy the comparisons. Add some different voices and some drama and your baby will be more than entertained.

A young boy named Bobby has the worst teacher. She's loud, she yells, and if you throw paper airplanes, she won't allow you to enjoy recess. She is a monster! Luckily, Bobby can go to his favorite spot in the park on weekends to play. Until one day... he finds his teacher there! Over the course of one day, Bobby learns that monsters are not always what they seem. Each page is filled with "monstrous" details that will have kids reading the story again and again. Peter Brown takes a universal and timeless theme, and adds his own humorous spin to create another winner of a picture book.
