Book Description

Publication Date: 30 Sep 2010

Morris the Mankiest Monster 'must be the most revolting picture book of the year . . . children will absolutely love it.' Bookseller

Giles Andreae and Sarah McIntyre would like you to meet Morris, the world's stinkiest picture book hero...

It's years since he last changed his t-shirt

It's crusty and crawling with ants

His shoes are all slurpy and squelchy inside

And potatoes grow out of his pants

Review

"More marvellous muckiness" (Helen Brown Daily Telegraph 20091205)

"Treading the tightrope between revolting and sweet is hard but Morris does it. What a gem!" (Books for Keeps 20100101)

"This is not a tale for the faint-hearted, but children who enjoyed the bottom humour of Giles Andreae's Pants will doubtless love it" (Junior 20091101)

"Must be the most revolting picture book of the year! . . . This book needs a warning to parents - they're going to have to read it over and over again - children will absolutely love it" (The Bookseller 20090717)

"Adults will be revolted and struggle to read to the end; children, I'm afraid, will just love it" (Nursery World 20100217)

Book Description

The most irresistibly disgusting picture book of the year from the bestselling author of Pants and zany new illustrator Sarah McIntyre.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's the Mankiest! 30 Oct 2009
By R. Michael Saunders
Format:Hardcover
Just read our copy of "Morris the Mankiest Monster" and immediately ordered three more for Christmas gifts. Morbidly delightful. Sarah McIntyre's artwork is stupendously disgusting in all the right ways :) She is one of the best up-and-coming children's artists we've seen. We'll buy more of her books in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Morris is one marvellously manky monster!! 4 Oct 2009
By P. Richardson
Format:Hardcover
I bought this book for my four year old daughter and she loves it. In fact, both my wife and I love it too! It had us all in fits of giggles, pulling faces at Morris' icky antics and going "EWW!!" at all the appropriate parts.

If your children giggle at the parts of stories where the characters pick their noses or fart then buy this book immediately! If you have problems with reading a story to your child which includes the word "Pustule" then go find something else.

Honestly, I loved this book. My wife loved it and most importantly our daughter loved it. I'll probably be taking this along to my local library to recommend that they buy it in too. Simple awesome!! :D

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny, disgusting and brilliant!!! 1 Oct 2009
By Mr. Ra Eades
Format:Hardcover
If you like laugh out loud childrens books that appeal to both adults and kids, then this is one to add to your collection. Wonderfully written and illustrated throughout this book had both me and my children, aged 3 and 7 in hysterics and going 'YUCK!' in equal measure. The level of detail in the artwork is amazing and my children loved pointing out all the little creatures who inhabit Morris's world. If you want to please your kids with a book that you and they can reread over and over or if you just like books about monsters who floss their teeth with slugs, then buy this NOW!
