Review: The Thing at 52 - Ross Montgomery








Review: The Thing at 52 - Ross Montgomery and Richard Johnson -July 2023

As someone whose job was reading picture books, it is something that I haven't shaken and now and again they are exciting and fun to read. It also shows people that picture books do teach children life skills. The Thing at 52 by Ross Montgomery introduces us to a little girl who is constantly walking past the house at Number 52 and notices a lonely monster. She decides to befriend the monster and soon the lonely monster is no longer by himself as he makes a good group of friends including a group of other monsters. Books like this show it only takes one person to help someone be less lonely and often that one person can help others make the step they need as they might have been nervous as well and hanging back. The other thing that I loved about this book was that Richard Johnson's illustrations are some of the most beautiful I have seen in a long time in a picture book. The Thing at 52 by Ross Montgomery and Richard Johnson is suitable for children aged 4-10 years old.
