Monster Diaries 1: The Negative Monsters!: Negative Nelly & Negative Ned by Bolaji O.

I downloaded this book after browsing the free section of Amazon in the hunt for some research. I thought it was a cute cover and I was extremely interested.

The lesson from this book is pretty awesome. The idea of building self-esteem in children is one that is always a question of debate. Do you teach them to fight or walk away? In Bolaji O's Monster Diaries 1: The Negative Monsters! there are lessons not only for children, but also for parents.

To build the self-esteem of children with their own minds is one that was never taught to me. I was praised for what I did right and punished for what I did wrong. Simple and easy, nothing more than what my parents were taught truthfully. Bolaji O's however gave me a different perspective to look into giving confidence to my future children.

However, this book needed some additional editing. Towards the end there were a few sentences cut off or repeated on my copy of this book, but overall it was an extremely easy read.

I recommend this book, but warn readers that there are some grammar issues.
