A shouty, colourful picture-book romp, begging to be read aloud with gusto * Guardian * The three words of this title brilliantly capture the wit and simplicity of this vividly imagined story ... highly entertaining -- Julia Eccleshare, LoveReading4Kids This funny book will make both kids and adults laugh, and is ideal for fans of Oi Frog! * Booktime Magazine * A high-energy read. If the title alone doesn't wake you up, wait until the monster starts shouting his pizza order down the phone . . . * Observer * Brilliantly funny and full of silly catchphrases that kids will be repeating for days after listening * BookTrust * Wonderfully silly and funny ... an ideal book to read aloud. Deeply likeable and featuring a relatable protagonist (we all get hungry!), MONSTER! HUNGRY! PHONE! is a winner. * INIS Magazine (Children's Books Ireland) *More details
