Bean there, read that. Tuesday, July 15, 2014. My teacher is a monster. Published by: Little, Brown. Definitely my favourite picture book this month*.

If you have, you'll know that not only does he use colour brilliantly and offer a out-of-the-box perspective on the world, but you will also be prepared for all the laughing. The premise of My Teacher is a Monster. I work at a bookshop again!

Has it really been a year? Tony Abb...
