Story
Two children set off on a journey to find a monster and tell him it’s time for breakfast. After adventures at sea and in high mountains, facing hungry wolves, and fierce tigers, the siblings come a cave and wake up the monster - their big brother Marcus, asleep in his bedroom.

Why we chose it
A lovely story which starts with a wildly imaginative adventure and ends with the joy of having siblings, as the ‘monster’ chases and tickles his younger brother and sister.
