Booklist - 06/01/2024 Itty Bitty Betty Blob is not your typical monster, being a small, round, pink creature who loves rainbows, flowers, dancing, and singing. “At school, Itty Bitty Betty Blob wanted to be bad, like a good little monster,” but to no avail, as sweet Betty just doesn’t have it in her. She tries to fit in with her classmates and practices making fierce faces and wearing scary clothes with her mother’s assistance. No matter what she does, she’s no good at monstering. On her way to school one day, Betty happens upon some small, round chick-like creatures that make her smile. When she shares the peeping “puffs” with her classmates on picture day, should readers be surprised at their response? After all, they are little monsters. Most of the illustrations are in black, white, and gray, whereas Betty appears pink in several pictures. Humorous artwork reveals Betty’s body flattening out during sleep, shower time, and while sliding under a log in the forest. Youngsters will get a kick out of this latest tale about just being yourself. - Copyright 2024 Booklist.
