Nayuleska's thoughts
I thoroughly enjoyed learning how Rory lived, with all the furniture and tools being monster themed. It felt like I'd known him for ages, not just a few minutes. The end blew me away. I seriously didn't expect the twist! I sat there stunned, and then laughed because it was rather funny. I wanted to reread the book straight away to take it all back in, this time having hindsight. I hope Rory gets to feature in another book, he is a total star here!
Suggested read
Another highly amusing tail is Troll and The Oliver by Adam Stower (Children's, Picture book, 10E/10E)
