Monster vs. Boy on CTV

Written by Karen Krossing

November 9, 2023

Once a month, children’s author Vikki VanSickle goes on CTV’s Your Morning to recommend Canadian kids’ books. Recently, Vikki was on the show to talk about Halloween-themed titles for all ages, and included Monster vs. Boy. My book was in great company!

Plus, this book has received wonderful reviews over the last few weeks:

“While some readers may pick up Monster vs. Boy because of the promise of a horror story, Karen Krossing’s latest middle-grade novel is more a reflection of what we see and fear in others before we know them….Karen Krossing also reminds us of the magic of books and reading.”
CanLit for Little Canadians

“Monster vs. Boy is a heartfelt and charming story about family, community support, and the power of acceptance of yourself and others.”
The Miramichi Reader

Rich with fantasy, the novel explores the definition of family, the power of friendship, and the healing that comes from confronting the trauma we may have locked behind closed doors.”
Canadian Children’s Book News

I hope you’ll pick up a copy and check it out!
