In Leonardo, the Terrible Monster Willems once again created a stand-out character that leaves an impact on – and a smile with – every child who meets him. His books and his action-packed illustrations never disappoint. Willems knows just how to speak to our youngest readers, showing them that not all monsters are scary and some would much rather be a friend than a foe. Willems, however, flips this idea on its head, revealing that monsters have emotions too, and some can even be quite sensitive to the needs of others. What I find most special about this book is how it humanizes monsters- typically a thing of nightmares and fears. Willems brilliantly weaves back and forth between large images and small corner illustrations, effortlessly maximizing white space when Leonardo feels sad and small, but then zooming in again when emotions are heightened and big decisions must be made.
