I really liked it. The reason I didn’t give a higher rating was because it wasn’t very challenging for me to read. I would recommend this book to someone who isn’t so great at reading.

I liked how the monster ate Bernard, but it was sad that the mum and dad were too busy too notice him. I would recommend this to my friends.

My favourite part is when the monster ate Bernard up. His parents don't look at him. I like this book.

The mum and dad did not pay attention to Bernard. It was not respectful. But I liked this story.

This is my favourite book because I find it very funny. Its also a book that my dad use to read when he was a boy. My favourite part is when the monster stands on the TV to watch it. I would recommend this book as its a good short read that will make you laugh.

This book is about a guy who is called Bernard but his parents keep saying not now Bernard even there was a monster in the garden. His parents always ignore him and say not now Bernard. I think his mother is so bad. I would recommend this book to my parents.
