This is one of my favourite monsters as we talk about the different emotions when we have to go back to school after this summer holidays. Recommended

I liked this book because it teaches you that you shouldn’t feel nervous when you start school because you will meet lots of new friends and learn lots

I thought the colour monster was a bit silly because he flooded the bathroom and he played with his food. He also didn’t play music properly and didn’t let anyone go on the swing. But at the end he loved everyone.

I like meeting new friends with the Colour Monster. This helped me for when I started school in September.

I liked when Torty was break-dancing in the gym lesson. Yes, I recommend this book.

I enjoyed reading this book and seeing the Colour Monster change colour. I find this book interesting because I can understand the different feelings shown by the Colour Monster. I would recommend this book because it helps children to know what it may be like and how they might feel on their first day at school.
