Harry and the Monster

Author: Sue MongredienIllustrator: Nick East

Poor Harry is too frightened to go to sleep, every time he goes to bed a big scary monster invades his dreams. Mum and Dad try to come up with ideas that won’t make the monster so terrifying – ‘try imagining him with a big pair of pink pants on his head’ suggests mum. But this only makes the monster more furious, in the end it’s an imaginary telling off from mum that works best, it was the monster’s turn to be scared this time!  The gentle text and humorous illustrations make a perfect book for banishing those night-time monsters. It is brilliant bed time read and a welcome edition to any book shelf.
