Description

Two monsters live on each side of a mountain. Sometimes they talk through the hole in the mountain, but they never see each other. One evening, they get into a silly argument about whether day is departing or night is arriving, which escalates into a rock throwing fight, which eventually destroys the mountain, and enables the monsters to see each other's point of view and live together as friends.

Reviews

"David McKees classic illustration style suits the craziness of the monsters argument in this (as always) profound picture book ... A perfect picture book for little ones to give them a way to talk about the frustrating feeling of having an argument and a reminder to grown-ups that very often we can think we are at odds with someone who, actually, pretty much agrees with us after all." * BookTrust *
"A great, fun, easy read that will have everyone giggling and, hopefully, learning to respect and consider other viewpoints alongside their own." * Early Years Educator *
