Summary

If this is it Monsters, don't eat broccoli. The Dads judge a book by its cover: we liked it. So there. Mike did a slight rewrite. He took some liberties with the words nothing major, just a word here maybe a syllable there, and the Dads test the results, they take it for test drive, if you will. It’s a fun read with monsters doing all kinds of fun things—eating trucks and tractors and toys all washed down with fruity oil, shopping with vim and vigor—but they don’t eat broccoli. 🥦 If you liked this episode, you’ll like this: More mayhem with green stuff: How Martha Saved her Parents from Green Beans Don’t like broccoli or other things green?
