A Monster for Meg (Giants and Monsters) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Moriah Venable
A Monster for Meg by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Meg is blind and her older sister Sue, is using words to describe how scary monsters are. Each time Sue describes something about monsters, Meg retorts with how that sound or feel is similar to something else. This becomes a fun game for Meg.
‘Sue jumps beside me and shouts, ‘Boo! Monsters jump out at you when you don’t expect it.”
“But Sue, I always know when you are sneaking up on me”.
This was cute and shows senses that some people don’t think about. Because Meg is blind, she does not view monsters as scary and Sue is trying to tell her scary monsters can be.
Very creative with conveying the bond between sisters and the illustrations of the characters and monsters.
