5 stars Children’s Reader
Cute, simple story for young children. Simple short sentences for beginning readers and a great book to introduce graphic novels to young children. It’s also a great story about using your imagination and the concept that anything is possible.
The story is about Monkey and a box that he has. Monkey claims that inside the box is a magic cat. Cake wants to see the magic cake and that is where the issues come into play. See, Monkey claims, “the cat disappears when” the box is opened. Hum?
Technically, the cat is in the box when the box is closed but how can Monkey prove it? Monkey makes a drawing of this, and I had to laugh when Cake tried peeking into the box.
I think it’s a super cute book and instead of Cake getting mad at Monkey, Cake tells Monkey he doesn’t believe him and why. Monkey is not upset. It’s a cute ending and that’s why Monkey and Cake are great friends. My grandkids liked it too and we talked about the book as we read it. 5 stars
