The New Monster Mash? Monster Boogie by Laurie Berkner

Creak!

The kids are nestled all snug in their beds, when... SOMETHING big, with horns, fangs, and claws comes through the door!

I'M THE BIGGEST MONSTER
YOU'VE EVER SEEN.
MY EYES ARE PURPLE,
AND MY TEETH ARE GREEN!

But the kids don't scream and run! They get up and DANCE!

They turn a little purple and begin to giggle, as the monster shows them how to do the Monster Wiggle!

Laurie Berkner, the famous song and dance gal for the preschool set, has an new assistant who knows how to twist and shout, in her latest dance book, Monster Boogie (Simon and Schuster, 2018). As depicted in the lively illustrations of the noted artist Ben Clanton, this monster is not exactly pretty, but he gets the tots away from their screens and moving--a good thing any day. Other books about polishing those monster moves are David Catrow's Monster Mash and Josie Bissett's Boogie Monster (read reviews here).
