Like a parade, they can be colorful and surprising and very alluring, but they come and go. The book is not too long and not too short, written in sweet prose with images the children seem to love.

Landry paints an inviting world where all kinds of goofy monsters are lurching down the street in a parade, representing our constant thought stream. when children notice that those thoughts and feelings come and go, they can feel less trapped and stuck. The rhyming prose makes this a great read aloud. Monster Parade could actually be used as an entry point for adults as well.
