Lil Cy and His "Monoshades"

A story about perseverance and compromise: that's the path to success!

"With his colourful tops and matching flip-flops, and his blue skin and his one lil eye,

Lil Cy the Cyclops was a very cool guy.

But when you are a guy with only one eye, there are no sunglasses you can buy."

If at first, you don't succeed, try again! That's the message in this rhyming story about a Lil Cyclops who wants some new sunglasses.

Lil Cy the Cyclops wants to wear cool shades like his friends, but he can't find any to fit his eye. So this clever fellow learns to make his own sunglasses. Before long, he has made far too many shades for his one lil eye! So his friend, Lil Paddy Patches, helps him find a compromise, and soon he has remade his "Monoshades" to fit everyone-not just a guy with only one eye.

This rhyming book is filled with funny illustrations that children will love. And the subtle message of kindness turns it into a tale that adults and children will enjoy together. All Lil Horreurs books are best read out loud. Read them with your children. They will love listening to them over and over again.
