Leonardo The Terrible Monster

Leonardo the Terrible Monster Soft Toy & Book Leonardo Soft Toy and Hardcover Book make great reading companians - and a great gift too!


Our Leonardo has a soft chenille, bean-filled body and a fabric pocket to make this monster a puppet. Try him out and you'll see that his floppy body is fun to move. Leonardo is 14" Tall.

Mo Willem's Hardcover Book is a true gem! Leonardo is a terrible monster–terrible as in he can't scare anybody. He's not big, doesn't have hundreds of teeth, and isn't even weird. So one day he comes up with an idea: He would find the most scaredy-cat kid in the whole world…and scare the tuna salad out of him! After much research, he chooses Sam, sneaks up on him, and [gives] it all he [has]. When the boy cries, Leonardo is convinced that he is a success. But Sam proceeds to recite a litany of wrongs that actually brought on his tears: My mean big brother stole my action figure right out of my hands…, and on and on. Leonardo makes a decision that is sure to surprise and delight readers.

At Tuesdays and Thursdays, we love how the author is listed on the cover of the book as "Your Pal, Mo Willems" - simply brilliant! and a great way for children to become friends with the world of reading!
