Empower, engage and nurture your child with stories they’ll want to read again and again!
At Monsters on Mill Street, we believe...
- Learning should be an adventure.
- Children should be empowered by the books they read.
- Amazing stories can fuel a lifelong love of reading.
That's why each Monsters on Mill Street book follows an energetic and lovable monster on an adventure filled with chaos and unexpected challenges.
Packed with lively illustrations and playful rhymes, these books promise a giggle-filled journey for your child. They’ll be so wrapped up in the fun, they won't even realize they're learning!
Wait... learning? Yes!
Specifically designed to assist children in developing executive functioning and social-emotional learning (SEL) skills, our books are a treasure trove for parents, grandparents, and educators who are looking to empower, engage and nurture young readers.
