Tidying up is something Molly manages to avoid from Monday to Thursday. However, each time she returns after tea, the mess has disappeared. Molly is increasingly convinced that an octopus must be responsible for the transformation. On Friday she is almost certain she will catch her eight-armed helper but when she does it's none other than her long-suffering mum. So, has Molly seen the error of her ways? - readers can decide for themselves. A theme most young children and their adult carers will be all too familiar with is amusingly portrayed in colour wash illustrations and a straight-forward narrative.
