Pedro's Monster

By Fran Manushkin and Tammie Lyon

Pedro is obsessed with monster trucks. He plays with his toy truck, writes about them at school, and even gets to go to a rally with his friends. He simply can't stop thinking about them! But can his love of monster trucks help him stop the monsters in his dreams? In the back matter, a glossary and discussion questions round out the learning and a collection of jokes rounds out the fun!
