Descripción: ReviewThe humorous answer and resulting reaction as all three faint dead away, will have children squealing with laughter. Salcedo’s highly expressive and lighthearted illustrations keep the focus squarely on these more-lovable-than-ugly monsters, depicting them against a plain beige background. [...] Delightful proof that there is strength in numbers. –– Kirkus Starred Review"Nonsense at its best, this tale shows children how some competitions are just plain silly, and promises to enliven story hours" – School Library JournalThe surprise twist that challenges all these monsters will also appeal to the very young, who will find its fun drawings not scary at all, but brightly revealing. – Donovan's Literary ServiceThis book is so funny and cute! I just loved the friendliness between all three of the monsters. They are just having a fun time being silly and joking around. I could imagine this exact dialogue between three children. – Luminous LibrosThe surprise twist that challenges all these monsters will also appeal to the very young, who will find its fun drawings not scary at all, but brightly revealing. – Midwest Book ReviewThis little monster says it´s the ugliest in the world. A second monster claims being even uglier. What happens when a third monster shows up? Could a mirror help them to decide who is the ugliest monster in the world?From School Library JournalPreS-K-This vivacious competition among a trio of Muppet-colored monsters will have preschoolers giggling at how opposite of "ugly" all of them are. From deeply pigmented blues and pinks to electric greens and yellows, a string-bean blue monster, a bulbous furry red one, and a yellow caterpillar-shaped third try on clothes. They point out features like their googly eyes, attempting upmanship at every turn. When they pose together in front of the mirror, they faint, reviving only to declare that as a group, they are the "ugliest monsters in the world." VERDICT Nonsense at its best, this tale shows children how some competitions are just plain silly, and promises to enliven story hours.-Kimberly Olson Fakih, School Library Journalα(c) Copyright 2011.
