I received an advance reader copy of this book in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

This book is 3 stories in one book and each story is relateable to children and their fears. My daughter and I really enjoyed this book. The illustrations are great - they are bright and colourful and engaging.
I love Scaredy Monsters character and things he does, says and thinks are so very much like a child so it is relateable on their level.
I can't wait to share more of this series with my daughter if more come out.

I LOVE this series of stories! My son uses Epic! daily and we only had access to the first story where the monster looses his tooth. We read the other two via Netgalley as well and he was immersed! It’s so important to have stories that are relative to the child and show great problem solving skills.

I’ll be purchasing this when it comes out!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me the opportunity to read this ARC!

This book is actually three stories in one. In the first, "Scaredy Monster Loses a Tooth", Scaredy Monster realizes one of his sharp front teeth is loose. He's heard horror stories from other little monsters about losing teeth, so he does everything he can think of to keep that tooth in place. Eventually, though, with some wise words from Mommy Monster, he realizes that losing teeth is just a part of growing up. In the second story, "Scaredy Monster Rides a Bike", the titular hero buys a bike from a yard sale. The only problem is, he doesn't really know how to ride it. His first attempt ends disastrously, and he becomes too scared to try again. But with Mommy Monster's help, he finds the courage to ride his bike again... and have a lot of fun! In the third story, "Scaredy Monster and the Slumber Party", Scaredy Monster goes to a sleepover at Timmy Monster's house. He thinks he's packed everything, but Teddy Monster somehow gets left behind. Scaredy Monster doesn't notice until he's frightened by a movie, and then when he can't find his toy, he wants to go home. Mommy Monster comes to the rescue once more, bringing Teddy Monster with her. Reassured, Scaredy Monster decides to stay and have fun with his friends.

It might look like Mommy Monster is rushing in to solve all of Scaredy Monster's problems, but really, she's just there to offer words of advice, to bandage scraped knees, and to reassure Scaredy Monster when he needs some encouragement. Scaredy Monster is always the one who makes the choice in the end to be brave, which is a nice message.

The illustrations are pretty cute. The monsters are not scary at all; in fact, some of them look rather silly. The pictures are all colourful and appealing, with nice little touches of detail throughout.

I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this one, but I was pleasantly surprised. Despite how it might appear given the length of the book, these are stories for very young children. As such, they would work as good bedtime reads (but probably only one at a time).

Scaredy Monster was adorable - both as a story and as a character. It's definitely a book I could see myself reading to my nieces if any of them would sit still long enough to follow his adventures. The pages are colorful and the trouble he gets up to is things every child either does or should get to experience in life. Every child loses their teeth, hopefully they get to experience a bike ride and at some point or another, they have bad dreams and need the thing that brings them comfort.

It's definitely a cute little book and the illustrator did an amazing job with his artwork. I would definitely check out more from both the author and the illustrator as I enjoyed the entire experience immensely.

I love Scaredy Monster!! His struggles are relatable and easy for kids to understand. The illustrations are cute and bright.
