Unlike Other Monsters - Hardcover

Praise for "Is Your Buffalo Ready for Kindergarten": "This story s simple lesson about individuality is cleverly expressed through Vernick s gentle wit and Jennewein s crayon-outlined kindergartners - most of all, the furry and ungainly reader surrogate with whom kids will readily relate." --Publishers Weekly

Zander is a monster. Monsters don't have friends. They prefer to scare children and eat their raisin bread alone. Then one day Zander meets a bird, and the unexpected happens. They start to spend time together, and Zander is reminded of how he's unlike other monsters. But does the fact they share secrets and hang out mean this is a fledgling friendship? And what will the other monsters think?

Award-winning author Audrey Vernick tackles the sometimes awkward but always exhilarating experience of making a new friend.
