Well, the main theme could be seen as the power of storytelling itself. In 'a monster calls novel', the monster tells the boy various stories which are not just tales but ways to make the boy understand his situation regarding his mother's condition. It shows how stories can be a tool for coping with complex emotions like fear, sadness and confusion.
I think one of the main themes is growing up in the face of adversity. The young protagonist has to grow up quickly due to his mother's illness. The monster serves as a catalyst for this growth, forcing him to face his feelings, confront his fears, and in the process, move towards a kind of maturity that is born out of pain and difficulty. It's about the journey from childhood innocence to a more complex understanding of life's hardships.
