  • Marvelous Monster Book

    By Mrs. Boes
    Want to read a great book to your students or share a fun book with your own child? My elementary students and my own boys LOVE reading this book. It appeals to a large audience because of the vivid colors and detailed drawings but what really draws them in is the recordings of students sharing their monsters with the reader. Well done! Can’t wait for the next book.

    Great work students & teachers. It is wonderful to see collaboration between younger and older students. It is refreshing to see how today’s technology can be used to inspire and enhance learning. I can sense the excitement and reward the students must experience when seeing their creation published.
  • Great job kids!

    This book shows a great example of collaboration between young and older students, giving the younger students the pride of working with older students and the older students a chance to be a model for the younger ones! I am going to use this book as an example for my current 4th graders when they work on publishing their own iBooks.

    In My Pet Montser, the kids’ creative voices come through loud and clear. This book is a colorful and charming example of what can happen when kids create together. I think this will inspire a lot of other kids to write, create, and find ways to share their ideas with the world!
  • Direct from the students...

    What an awesome example of what teaching looks like when you enable students to be creative, set high expectations, and then get out of their way. Excellent work in designing the project by the teachers and fantastic work by the students. Well done all.
  • Excellent Example of Cross Level Collaboration in Education

    This book beautifully brings together language learning and art in an oustanding example of transformative, collaborative work. The illustrations are colorful, bold, bright and creative. I appreciate the diversity of the descritptions and forms of the monsters. I can’t wait to read this book to my children with hopes of inspiring them to share their own stories. In addition this will be my new “go to” example to inspire the teachers I work with. I hope seeing how well students at different grade levels work together will inspire more cross-divisional work at my school.

    My Pet Monster is a great example of what young students can do when they are inspired by enthusiastic and forward-thinking educators. My Pet Monster has great images and engaging audio narration. It’s a page turner! Highly Recommended to young readers, and to teachers who want to see what is possible when students are allowed to imagine real publishing instead of just writing for an audience of one.
