Overview
Meet eight mischievous little monsters in this giggle-inducing board book box set from bestselling author-illustrator Bill Cotter. Built around his loved Don't Push the Button series, this collection turns every page-turn into an interactive game, complete with buttons to press, presents to shake, and monsters to outsmart. Chunky pages, bold illustrations, and playful direct-address text make these books ideal for read-aloud time with toddlers and preschoolers. Whether used for bedtime, storytime, or as a gift, this eight-book set delivers laughs, early learning, and lasting durability in one bundle.
About the Books
Each board book in this Little Monster Tales set follows Bill Cotter's interactive style: a cheeky narrator gives a simple instruction, don't push, don't shake, don't touch, and small hands are invited to break the rule anyway, triggering silly monster-filled consequences on every spread. The original Don't Push the Button! started the phenomenon, and this set gathers its seasonal spin-offs and companion stories together. Let's Say Good Night turns the format into a bedtime routine, while A Spooky Surprise, A Springtime Surprise, and A Ghost Surprise bring seasonal fun to the same formula. Don't Touch This Book! and Don't Shake The Present! extend the game to tickling and gift-opening, and Five Little Monsters Jumping on the Bed adds a counting rhyme twist. The bright illustrations are silly rather than scary, and sturdy board pages survive enthusiastic repeat reading.
