Playthrough: Little Monster at School - Part 1

[@CowboysNo1Fan]

I love how Little Monster is respectful, courteous and polite at breakfast, plus his older sister cares for her baby brother by giving him more food

[@PatriciaFlora10]

Thank you so much for bringing my childhood memories back

[@cast982]

There are Few Birds in Part 1 of Living Books: 2:39 Blue Bird (Bass Violin) 11:07 Flying Bird (Falling into the Chimney) 11:28 Dancing Bird

[@Supreme-Fishy]

Damm u deserve a sub for going over all the scenes to find the birds scenes in part 1

[@DakariKingMykan]

Oh this takes me WAAAAAAAAAAAAY back!

[@ZakWolf]

I love how the older sister says "Uh-oh" at 5:21, and the way the Kerploppus eats up the spilled baby food and runs off with the bowl.

[@jacobchang7165]

On Page 2, when Little Monster had the choice between eggs or cereal with milk for breakfast, I (without a KZbin comment at first) had some sort of remark with that. I said, "Little Monster eating cereal with milk for breakfast on weekdays/school day mornings...! I understand. That is, given that it is a weekday breakfast food to begin with. But NOT eggs. One should realize that you do not eat bacon and eggs, or even sausage on weekdays". My mom (in reality) used to say that since I was in 4th grade. Bacon and eggs, and breakfast sausage are more like a weekend morning breakfast food. Cereal I will take. But not eggs (not even omelets). I like omelets. I am not going to lie. (However, I actually learned how to make the recipe Ziploc omelets when I was in 6th grade. Because I had a culinary arts class back when I was in middle school. And they had breakfast recipes --even though they are normally supposed to be eaten on weekends at home. Yes, including Ziploc omelets, pancakes, French toast, Southern buttermilk biscuits, and raspberry cinnamon muffins.) But back when I was in 6th grade, when I made Ziploc omelets, I did not actually cook in a group (unlike most recipes). Zak Wolf? What is funny though is that when you are finished making a Ziploc omelet, you get the last verse which says, "Open the bags so the omelets roll out easily".

[@jacobchang7165]

The baby was actually eating oatmeal, not baby food. And when he was crying, he said something like, "I WANT MY EGGS RIGHT NOW!".

[@michaelhendrix8011]

That crying sound effect was also in New Kid on the Block on the My Baby Brother poem and on the last page of Arthur’s Computer Adventure.

[@ARemoteAndRandomName]

Yeah, especially when you consider not only was the first game in the series released in 1992, but the datafiles for some of the early games go as far back as 1989. No wonder Windows wasn't a top priority.

[@Dimensioneer88]

I just noticed a parallel with these characters: Little Monster - Arnold Girl - Helga Yally - Harold Tall monster - Stinky

[@victorgarfield6983]

The girl’s name is Grendella

[@lukedavis3703]

You mean the same voice actors?

[@Dimensioneer88]

@@lukedavis3703 No, the character dynamics.

[@ZakWolf]

And in "The Smelly Mystery", Little Laff is quite the practical joker, so he could be like Sid. And then the smart kid, Jerry Bombanat, he could be a male Phoebe or maybe the Peapod Kid.

[@BethGoth15]

Oh, I didn't have this one. I had the demo for it which I played a quite a bit, though. Thank goodness I read the book version at school once, I was always curious about what happened next!

[@ARemoteAndRandomName]

No. With the upcoming iOS ports, I have respect for Wanderful and don't want to ruin one of their selling points.

[@PeterSamFanNo4]

I remember playing this interactive storybook when I was little!

[@nicolecamilazambrano]

I’ve always thought little monster’s mom said “wake up little monster, wake up!” At the begging. I usted to play this so much when I was little and even my sister remembers the line as I remember it. #mandelaeffect Anyways, this brings so many nice memories thank you so much 💕 I’m glad I found this video

[@williamwilson3526]

Ink is a pink monster from “Happy Monster Band”.

[@madden8021]

I'd remember this during my kindergarten years. Ahh, Good times.

[@ZakWolf]

Heh, I remember the calliope stock music at 8:44 would later go on to be used in a few "Arthur" episodes!

[@alexanderip1003]

This is also used in the adaptation of Adventures of Tintin Prisoners of the Sun with Detectives Thompson Twins looking for Prof. Cuthbert Calculus via Dowsing using his Pendulum on a wild goose chase

[@jeanneflaherty4491]

Kevin Flaherty: This computer game has always been 1 of my favorites ever since the 1st time I saw it. I was in Preschool in those days just like the Tortoise and the Hare.

[@michaelpierce3871]

I can't wait to play this game again on my Packard Bell that I'm getting in the mail on February 5th. :)

[@buttersfan18]

+Michael Pierce what is it? i was just googling trying to find out if you can still find and play these games now? i have a 3 year old and these games are perfect for him right now but i dont know if you can still get and play them. i loved these games

[@rogerwhittaker4189]

Oh yeah this takes me back when I was going to Crystal lakes elementary school the memories.

[@jeanneflaherty4491]

Kevin Flaherty: I've always LOVED the music At 0:43.

[@HereBePirates]

Wish I had that bad-ass bass-playin' bird on my window. Still awesome, almost 20 years on.

[@segachildstarspawn2624]

I think this game was one of the games choosen in my Senior Kindergarten computer. But I never get much of a chance of playing it though. Also, I never knew that I have Aspergers, then again I was also quite the weirdo then too.

[@iamck_]

my...childhood...i played this game a BILLION times!!!

[@Pugslee3]

I wish I had kept my first computer because then I could play this game!

[@MissyR]

These were the best computer games for kids to learn back when I was little.

I wish it were the 1990's, then I could find my first job more easily!

[@krassilverfang5504]

I remember this from when I was 4 years old..... damn that's having good memory when you think about it

[@bluetennant1998]

First, I played the demo version, and about years later, I got the full version on a copied CD.

Whenever we take a break from doing school work we would go on the computer , for free time.

[@elkereali2456]

OH MY GOD the part around 11:15 or so, when the trees lose their leaves always made me sad as a kid hfkdnfkendke This game..... memories

[@hannahalexandra1419]

I LOVED THE TINY DUDE IN THE DRAWER!!! oh my god, this brings back so many memories. I remember the chubby monster eating all the candy and getting sick! I have to watch this whole thing through.

[@ARemoteAndRandomName]

Yeah, funnily enough that was a selling point back then.

[@Tgogators]

ha yes!! I got this as a gift (in like 95) for my Mac Proforma. Great nostalga.

[@MWolfL]

There's only one thing I hate about this game: it's not on Steam. Honestly, more great computer games should finally be put on Steam so that everyone can play them without worrying about downloading the right software or whatever else it takes to play old CD-ROMs.

[@bugzpudding]

I miss this game

[@mushroomhead3619]

Omg! The yodelling slime!

[@hannahmagdaluyo8422]

Little Monster:hi! I'm little monster! Welcome to living books

[@MegaOrwell1984]

I rememeber playing this cd-rom at the public library when I was a kid.

[@iansettlemyer8706]

I like how that bird plays the bass.

[@jdsk800]

Does anyone know the name of the baby crying sound effect used at 5:22? Because I heard it in a few other Living Books games, 'The New Kid on the Block', and 'Arthur's Computer Adventure'.

[@williamwilson3526]

Page #2 of course, Sonia from “Sonic”!

[@kevinmcqueary7395]

9:22; can be found in The Tortoise and the Hare.

[@wonderhearts9273]

this song is from "Sesame Street."

[@jacobchang7165]

In a "Super Smash Bros and Super Smash Bros MELEE 2005-2006" crossover edition, it should be "Mario at School: A 'Little Monster' Parody". These are the characters: (Nintendo characters and Staff) Mario = Little Monster Paratroopa = Little Laff Link Pikachu = Grendella Kirby/Giant Kirby = Yally Samus Ness Jigglypuff Gorgo = Mr. Gritthix Queen of Monster from Prehistoric Planet = Mrs. Verakisser (Mario Sub Series Characters) Luigi (appears silently/wordlessly on pages 1 and 2) Peach = Sister Toad = Pop Toadette = Mom Yoshi = Baby Monster Chain Chomp = Kerpplopus the Dog Luigi does not speak. But Peach is "Sister Monster". Toad is "Pop" and Toadette is "Mom". Chain Chomps have acted like dogs in the Mario sub series games. In Mario Party 6, they are seen in dog houses. And it is on the one board Snowflake Lake. (Note: While there is indeed both male and female Koopas and Paratroopas, this Paratroopa was not only Yoshi's preschool age like all Koopas and Paratroopas, but he was a green shelled one from Stage 1 of Adventure in MELEE.) These 8 characters (Link, Mario, Pikachu, Kirby, Samus, Zelda, Ness, and Jigglypuff) are in "Magic School Bus" style (but only from The Magic School Bus TV series, TV tie in books, and video game series). Link was "Tim", Mario was "Arnold", Pikachu was "D.A", Kirby was "Carlos", Samus was "Phoebe", Ness was "Ralphie", and Jigglypuff was "Wanda". Queen Rodan was "Ms. Frizzle" and Queen Gamera was "Liz".

[@MWolfL]

Something occurred to me: the morning song includes the line 'there's green trees and blue skies'. So how do they handle the morning song when it's really cloudy, rainy, or when it's fall or winter?

[@Klonoa-yb6rt]

I wish we could bring this back!!

[@jeanneflaherty4491]

Kevin Flaherty: School. Those were the good old days.

[@andyocineoficial]

Holy mother of childhood....

[@HaneeFannee]

There is no 'parallel' at all, you're just making a connection because you want one to be there. For one; Little Monsters was out years before Hey Arnold and two; the characters from each show have absolutely nothing to do with each other, they bare no resemblance to each other whatsoever apart from what? Little Monster is a male and so is Arnold? His sister is female and so is Helga?

Hey, why does Mercer Mayer name his stories' main characters "Little" ? What about when those characters *GROW UP* ?

[@KBAFourthtime]

+Sarah Christensen (Gorgeous) Because they are children, and as for when they grow up, it's never written... at least not by him. He hasn't done anything of the sort.

[@ZakWolf]

I remember reading somewhere that Little Monster was also sometimes called "Sam Monster."
