Don't JUDGE a Book By its COVER


A Monster Calls is a book that is not what I expected what it would be about. Don’t get me wrong it was not a bad book it was just that it is one of those books that you should not judge by its cover. I thought it would be scary because of the illustrations in it like a terror kind of fear. It does not have any kind of fear that will make you have nightmares it is more of a fear of reality and what someday a friend or loved one may go threw in life. In this book you have to mentally imagine what a child might go thru when dealing with someone sick in the family. The book is dark and deals with a sad young boy. Of course this book will bring many tears. This book was based of the ideas of Siobahn Dowd but she passed away before she could write the book. Later Patrick Ness picked up her idea and created the dark world for Conner.
