“M is for Monster is sweet and emotional, builds a complete world of magic and science very elegantly, and has so much to say about identity and grief. I really resonated with the story of trying to be someone you’re not in order to be loved, and the idea of a created monster finding herself is such a beautiful way to explore it. Also, the art is just gorgeous. SO well done!” –Molly Knox Ostertag, author of The Witch Boy and The Girl from the Sea

“Dutton’s storytelling and art excel, making this a story with popular appeal that’s also bound to inspire deeper discussions about accepting the limitations of one’s personal control.” –School Library Journal, Starred Review
