This looks like a great little book for kids about not judging by appearance and standing by your friends. Maybe some adults should read this too.

Thank you for an interesting review. The book teaches a great lesson, that we should get to know people before we judge them, I also noticed the cover art. Kudos to the author.

It's very important to teach kids not to judge others by their looks. There's a quote in my country that says "listening and believing to gossips mean you don't have self-respect". I'm excited to read this children's book which contains wholesome story about curiosity and adventure. Congratulations on the BOTD.

It appears from the review, that this author takes on a somewhat similar teaching philosophy as my childhood hero, Dr. Suess. It's good to see that there are still people keeping that light alive in a time so dark.

This is a fantastic idea! It's great that this book shares a message about not judging someone from afar and actually getting to know them before making conclusions about them. We need to teach these important conscious practices to children early, like this author is attempting to do with their book.

Latest Review: Of Zots and Xoodles by Zarqnon the Embarrassed

Post by Summer Henrietta »

This book is well detailed and portrays the innocence of children who live without the vices of life in their minds.
The friendship between the Taft, Barkley and Spur ideally shows how friendship should look like as they stood beside each other through thick and thin. The book also shows how curious kids are at their age and how they want to find out the reason they shouldn't do certain things, which led them to exploring the Castle they were told not to .
The pictures in the book made it more engaging.
I will recommend this book to kids of all ages.

Interesting review indeed, though a bit too long, deserves some sharing as sharing it will motivate more viewers to read the book and use it for story time with their kids, all such moral values really do need to be recaptured into our kids lives

We might have misconceptions about someone without getting close to them, but when we do get close to them, we will then understand that what we thought of those people is not who they are. The Three Little Monsters and the Cranky King by Teydon Rae is a children's book that will teach you not to judge someone by what you hear about them.

In a land far away, beyond the highest mountain, lived a king called Spallenzairek. He was the king of all monsters and was greatly feared by the other monsters that lived in the village. However, there lived three little monsters who would often play together whenever they got the chance. They were warned by their parents to stay away from the king's castle to avoid being eaten by the king. They took this advice for a while, but as children they let their inquisitive nature take over. They agreed to just play once in the castle. How would this turn out for them?

I like children's books because of the innocence they portray. Children are innocent beings who prevail in a world where love and peace have all gone extinct. Taft, Barkley, and Spur showed a great deal of what friendship should look like. When the king was coming, they all stood by one another's side. They knew what they might get eaten, but they looked out for themselves.

I don't think this book deserves any negative comments. There was nothing to hate in this book. The author paid attention to details. He made sure the book wouldn't bore any child by creating such an amazing storyline. I read this book to my kindergarten pupils and they enjoyed every bit of it, alongside the pictures too.

Therefore, I'm rating this book 4 out of 4 stars. The book was exceptionally well-edited. It didn't have any errors. I would like to recommend this book to people who love reading children's books.

Most people are guilty of judging people by the rumors they hear about them and sadly, we end up wordlessly teaching our children to do the same. This is a great book to educate children that they shouldn't always listen to what is said of others before trying to know them.

I couldn't agree with you more.
There would be some lessons to learn from this book especially for children.
