Jeremy Draws a Monster

Jeremy Draws a Monster is by Peter McCarty. This book is geared towards children ages 3 to 6 years old. I think this book is creative, and shows things that may go through little boys minds, monsters. This book is about a boy named Jeremy. Jeremy never goes outside, so one day draws a monster. This monster is alive, and bored. The monster continuously asks Jeremy to draw more things because he is bored and hungry. Jeremy decides he's had enough so makes the monster leave, but by taking him outside to catch the bus, other kids see Jeremy and ask him to play, and he does. This book, in my opinion, shows how you won't get anything if you don't go try it. I think this because Jeremy didn't have any friends because he never went outside, but when he finally went outside, he finally got to play with the other kids. I think this book could be shared in the classroom when discussing drawing and art as well as when showing kids not to give up and go out and try new things.
