About The Book

Unconditional loathing is monsterly love in this sweetly humorous story with audio.

Just how much does Big Monster loathe Little Monster? Let it count the ways....

I loathe you more than tooth decay
More than blizzard snow in May
More than garbage in a dump
More than splinters in my rump
No matter what, through thick and thin, I loathe you there and back again!

Author and illustrator David Slonim depicts a tender, tongue-in-cheek celebration of a very special kind of loa...er, love. This eBook edition includes audio!
