"Mommy" by Maurice Sendak

Posted by elizabeth leach

 

"Mommy", Maurice Sendak's beautifully illustrated pop-up book is a great book to read after trick or treating or at any time. A little boy finds himself in a very scary house where he encounters one monster after another. To each monster he asks, "Are you my Mommy?"

No matter how hard the monsters try to scare him, this little boy is unfazed and outsmarts through many mischievous actions. He pulls down a werewolf's pants, puts his pacifier in a monster's mouth, unwraps a mummy, etc. The perfect pop-up book for Halloween!
