Delightful full-color illustrations keep young readers engaged. Filled with simple dialogue, action, and controlled vocabulary, this title is ideal for students ready for independent reading. The adventures of these lovable monsters will entice young readers. Purchase where there is a great need for beginning chapter books.-- "School Library Journal"
Four good-hearted monsters repeatedly save the day by concocting clever ways to foil the schemes of their evil families and schoolmates. . . .Bardin adds a zany element to the well-leaded narrative with daffy cartoon illustrations. . .Hoena tucks sufficient tongue-in-cheek references into the narrative to keep older readers amused, should they happen upon the book. Never a dull moment at Frankenstein Elementary.-- "Kirkus Reviews"
