{"product_id":"the-wanting-monster","title":"The Wanting Monster","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Wanting Monster is one of my favorite books in the shop. It's philosophical and thought-provoking, and the illustrations are breathtaking. In an unusual twist, the monster is driven not by evil but by longing and shame, and he is restored by the simplest human gift: to be seen. At each age, a reader's understanding of the book will become deeper, richer. My five-year-old loves the story (and anything with monsters), and for me, it's profound — a meditation on envy and desire and on our relationship with the natural world. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abrams","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45194997792966,"sku":"1125-BOK-MISSDA","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/4763\/6422\/files\/Spiral_NYC_WantingMonster_1.jpg?v=1775679668","url":"https:\/\/spiralbooksnyc.com\/products\/the-wanting-monster","provider":"Spiral Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
