Frankenstein Doesn't Wear Earmuffs! by John Loren #Halloween Countdown 2021 #monsters #review


I have read a few Frankenstein books of various kinds. This happens to be one of the cutes.

It starts out as the "monster" is getting ready to leave on a Halloween night of scariness, candy, and mayhem. Soon, the reader finds out that the "monster" is a cute kid with the best Frankenstein costume ever!

Unfortunately, just he begins to step out, Dad stops him and says it is rainy and he needs his golashes. So, he reluctantly put them on and the story begins again but...STOP...this scenario repeats until he has finally had it and gives out a ROAR while throwing stuff off. The whole build up is hilarious!

What happens next comes to a conclusion as he meets and greets other "monsters".

I loved this book! To make it more fun the illustrator made all of the characters larger than life with dark tones and a spooky vibe but not enough to scare young children. The book made me laugh at each turn of the page.

Highly recommend. 5 stars.
