Speaking of books are you ready for a story. Today we're going to meet the only monster who lives in Cubesville .It's tough to be the only monster in a world of cute fluffy things do you think he'll be able to find someone to love him? Let's find out as we read, Love Monster. If you have a copy. Go get it so you can read along with me. LOVE MONSTER by Rachel Bright. This is a monster (Hello Monster). I think you'll agree he's a little bit funny looking. To say the least. He lives in a world of cute fluffy things, which makes being funny looking...pretty. Darn hard ou might have noticed that everybody loves kittens... and puppies... and bunnies. You know, cute, fluffy things. But nobody loves a slightly hairy. I-suppose -a -big -googly-eyed monster. (Poor Monster) This might be enough to make a monster feel, well, a bit down in the dumps. But not being the moping- around soft, he decided to set out and look for someone who'd love him, just the way he was. He looked high. He looked middle-ish. He looke inside. And outside. More than once he thought that maybe...just maybe... he had found what he was looking for. But as it turned out things were never quite as they seemed. Yes, it would be fair to say that his search did not go well. And then it didn't go well some more. It didn't go well for such a long time in fact, that it began to get dark. And scary. And, well, not very nice. So the monster, having lost all his Oomph, decided it was time to give up. And go home. But in the blink of a googly eye... everything changed. You see. Sometimes, when you least expect it ... love finds you. Love always has a way of finding you. I hope you enjoyed our story today. See you next time.
