Summary from Little Tiger Press
It’s raining and Barnaby is bored. Then he has a brilliant idea: he’s
going to make a den. “But a monster might move in!” say Mum and Dad.
Barnaby’s den is made of cushions and bits of sofa – far too cosy for a
monster. But playing by himself isn’t much fun and soon Barnaby wishes a
monster would move in. BIG MISTAKE!
Nayu's thoughts
This story made me laugh, especially when the situation was
reversed. Seeing and reading about Barnaby making a den made me
think of the elaborate ones I had both inside and outside the house
when I was little. I can safely say I never met a monster, although I
did meet royalty and characters from Louisa May Alcott's Little
Women,
as well as Florence Nightingale. The monster meets seems a
bit mischievous and creates some havoc, but helps Barnaby laugh and
have fun. Imagination is a wonderful thing!
