SDG! I know I’m getting a little ahead of myself but the Druid stuff in PHB refers to Beast Challenge rating chart (for what you can be at different levels), is this chart in the Monster book? Does that mean I can haz MONSTER BOOK because I need it?
I actually don’t know where there’s a chart, the MM is organised by monster and tells you their stats including CR but there’s not a table anywhere in the book that I know of that lists them all.
Here’s an example of a page from the MM. The challenge rating is on the left hand side of the stat block, at the end of the block of text below the ability stats.

If I were playing a Druid, id find a handy reference table online (probably D&D beyond) that listed monsters and beasts by CR, then refer to the MM to find out more details. So yes, feel free to buy the book
