About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when they see their child caught in a spiral of one-upmanship with a friend or sibling. This humorous story follows two robot friends who start a simple game of building monsters that quickly escalates into a competitive frenzy. As they build bigger and better creations like a Robot, then a Robot Zombie, then a Robot Zombie Frankenstein, their friendly game turns into a boastful contest. The book brilliantly captures the feelings of jealousy and the desire to be 'the best' while ultimately showing that collaboration and friendship are more rewarding than winning. It is an excellent, lighthearted tool for discussing friendly competition and the importance of having fun together.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book features 'monsters' (zombie, Frankenstein, vampire, etc.), but they are presented in a cartoonish, non-threatening way as part of a creative building game. There are no truly scary or sensitive topics. The focus is on the emotional dynamic of competition.
