The story of a sweet little monster who wants help from his friend to understand the feelings he experiences. On each spread is a vibrant and striking pop-up that conjures up feelings and emotions connected to different colours; black, yellow, red and green.

The Colour Monster is a very cleverly constructed paper engineered book about feelings featuring spectacular pop-ups. [...]
This is a special book to share with a child and enjoy looking at, albeit very carefully! Though the concept of bottling up feelings might be a little problematic, parents and teachers could certainly use this book to spark discussion about different feelings and perhaps help children understand them a bit more. It might lead to talk about other feelings too, such as what colour would represent boredom - perhaps brown or grey?

Sharing this book may also inspire children to create their own colour monster or even their own pop-ups!
