If I was in a bad mood this might even have gotten a “Not Recommended.”  I like the graphics of the format, and I’m choosing to let that influence my rating heavily.  It’s an attractive book, and the engaging graphics will certainly capture kids’ attention.  The problem is that the characters/plot are not particularly well-developed:  a bunch of monster kids play hide-and-seek and the invisible kid wins.  My worry is that when kids choose what looks like a good book, if they are the disappointed by it, it will feed the books-are-boring prejudice that we are always trying to fight.
