This is a cute little book, that your students will love to make. This activity is based on the book "Go Away Big Green Monster" by Ed Emberly. Students design their own "big ______ monster" and when they are finished they will have created their own "die cut" type book.

Their book will begin with just the eye, the next page will show the eyes and the nose, and so on until the whole monster is created.

The language in the book is very easy to read. The most difficult part is cutting out the holes, so the monster will show through. Most of my grade 1s have been able to easily cut out this book with very little help. Younger children will need more assistance.
