phelan mfa nyc teen author book festival scbwi sid fleischman award word tuesday march 10 2015 it s pub day for marilyn s monster know what is super exciting when a book you ve been working on for a long time is finally released into the world and today is the day that happens for my new picture book marilyn s monster it has beautiful beautiful illustrations by the amazing and wonderful matt phelan here is the cover so you can begin to see what i mean and here is what reviews have been saying so far rich with feeling it s a warm gently funny reminder to chase down one s dreams rather than waiting for them to appear on the doorstep publishers weekly starred review a surprising spin on monsters with nicely effective artwork and heart kirkus knudsen s charming story is a great fit for phelan s gentle watercolor and pencil illustrations with just a few lines and brushstrokes he depicts the wide range of marilyn s emotions from wary hopefulness to sullen grumpiness to finally utter joy the whimsical friendly monsters are equally expressive and their supernatural antics in the background will tickle funny bones little ones feeling lonely or worried about making friends will be empowered by marilyn s determined take charge attitude booklist knudsen s brilliantly simple narrative and phelan s whimsical pencil and watercolor drawings speak to the universal need for belonging and the anxiety born of impatience every one of phelan s monsters is wonderfully weird and readers will have fun noting similarities between them and their human friends school library journal a charmer ms knudsen has packed a surprising amount of relatable emotion into this story of humility and derring do wall street journal also it is a junior library guild selection you can read and or
