Synopsis
Brilliant and hilarious, full of monsters and disbelieving grown-ups – this is an irresistible Hoban and Blake classic, back in print at last.
From the inimitable duo of Russell Hoban and Quentin Blake, the pair behind the hilarious tales of Captain Najork, this is the story of John, who likes to draw monsters. Lots of them. Red monsters, yellow monsters, scaly monsters, furry monsters, even invisible monsters. Nothing but monsters! His mum and dad are beginning to worry. Then one day John starts a monster drawing that fills up a whole sheet of wrapping paper – and that’s just the tip of the tail! Will this be his biggest monster ever? Or even … how long will it remain just a drawing?
