Maybe there's a monster inside  Annie warms up to the exasperating but lovable creature she finds in her backpack in this humorous story complemented by energetic illustrations.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen Annie unzips her new flowered backpack and finds a monster inside, it's hard to say who is more shocked. \"AAAAHHHH \" yells the monster. \"EEEEEEKKKK \" yells Annie. It's a predicament, to be sure, as the monster proceeds to gobble Annie's sandwich, stick gum in her boot, and tear up her homework to use as confetti for an \"Annie-is-great\" parade in the middle of class. With a perfectly tuned sense of comic timing, Lisa Moser captures a young girl's transition from annoyance to affection as a funky and disarmingly open-hearted monster makes an untimely appearance. Noah Jones's colorful and expressive illustrations bring these two charming characters brilliantly to life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Candlewick Press (MA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780763666439\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 36\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.80w x 0.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e110969 \/ Monster in the Backpack\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.4 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Lisa Moser","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36642174992540,"sku":"9780763666439","price":5.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_32bae784-13d0-4afe-93f9-231c892c1fe0.jpg?v=1603854536","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-monster-in-the-backpack-9780763666439","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
