Review: Very Basic Storyline But the Illustrations Are Really Good!
Rating: 4 out of 5

Monster Soup has a little intro then is basically just the numbers 1 to 10, each on a page of their own with a few words describing a gross ingredient to go into the monster's soup.  Sort of like the twelve days of Christmas but without the repetition of repeating anything (which I think is a good thing).  Ingredients include foulest fish skeletons, withered witch noses, and rancid rat rumps to name but three.  There really isn't much to the storyline, if it had less quality illustrations it wouldn't be much of an appealing read, but the high quality illustrations do lift the appeal factor of the book.
