Monster & Son

David LaRochelle, illustrated by Joey Chou

This picture book follows monster fathers and sons through the familiar rhythm of a day, from waking up to going to sleep. Each spread pairs a different creature with its child, recasting ordinary activities in unusual settings. Underwater fishing, tickling with extra hands, and a huge parent holding a yawning baby create visual contrasts with the book’s rhyming text. The monsters include figures such as Godzilla, the Mummy, and the Loch Ness Monster.
