Don't Call Me Sweet!

by Smriti Prasadam-Halls and Angie Rozelaar, Bloomsbury, paperback, £6.99

When you're a small monster in a hurry to grow up, then you want to be called scary, or stinky, even slimy - just not sweet ... That is until you encounter a big hairy ogre, whose favourite tea-time treat is a grubby little monster. Time to back-pedal.

There is so much to love about this story - the rhyming text, the humour and the illustrations of the sweetest little monster. This could well prove a favourite with children so be prepared to read it again and again.
