A Monster in Paris coloring pages are featuring Lucille, Raoul, Emile, Victor Maynott, Francœur, Inspector Páte, Maud, Madame Carlotta, Albert and other characters from A Monster in Paris animated film. Try to guess who is who.
A Monster in Paris whisks young viewers on a musical romp through a version of 1910s Paris that might feel closer to an enchanting fever dream than historical fact. It’s a world where monsters sing and songs have the power to mend wounds you never knew you had. Underneath the catchy tunes and animated flourishes, however, lies a story that’s less about monsters and more about people—well, people who meet monsters, anyway—and the sorts of things they can learn from not running away in horror.
To begin with, the film offers a rather useful message for any child considering a career in running toward instead of away from the unfamiliar: not everything scary is dangerous. Our friendly monster, feared by Parisians who can’t see past his size, becomes a symbol of all the delightful oddities people tend to ignore (or try to squish) just because they’re different. Through the unlikely friendships that blossom, kids are gently reminded that appearances are rarely the whole story and that getting to know someone—or something—might lead to a far richer tale than the one they were expecting. It’s a bit like the moral of the story got lost in a closet of misplaced wigs, only to re-emerge more colorful and absurd than when it went in.
And finally, A Monster in Paris doesn’t just linger in the murky waters of moral education; it jumps, hat-first, into the value of a good friendship. The camaraderie that forms between the characters shows kids that even the most absurd adventures are best shared with people—or monsters—who believe in you. Through the plucky duo of Raoul and Emile, aspiring musicians who refuse to let minor issues like giant insect friends get in the way of their dreams, the film reminds children that passion and perseverance might be all they need to turn their own wild ambitions into something just as marvelous. In the end, it’s a lovely bit of cinematic advice: pursue your passions, embrace your oddities and make sure your friends are as delightfully ridiculous as you are.
