Book Synopsis

This New York Times bestselling novel from acclaimed author Walter Dean Myers tells the story of Steve Harmon, a teenage boy in juvenile detention and on trial.

Presented as a screenplay of Steve's own imagination, and peppered with journal entries, the book shows how one single decision can change our whole lives.

Monster is a multi-award-winning, provocative coming-of-age story that was the first-ever Michael L. Printz Award recipient, an ALA Best Book, a Coretta Scott King Honor selection, and a National Book Award finalist.

Monster is now a major motion picture called All Rise and starring Jennifer Hudson, Kelvin Harrison, Jr., Nas, and A$AP Rocky.

The late Walter Dean Myers was a National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature, who was known for his commitment to realistically depicting kids from his hometown of Harlem.

    This is the single greatest book I have read in my life. The suspense kills you and makes you want to keep reading. It tells much about what it's like to grow up in the projects of Harlem and what it's like to be in prison and how some people just don't belong there. This is a must read!

  • Sorry but I hated it

    I had to read this in class and it was painful to have to read it all. It was hard to finish it because it was so uninteresting. Over all it was just boring :/

  • Great book.
