The Gobbledygook and the Scribbledynoodle

Look! Look! It's the Gobbledygook!
He's reading his favourite mon-story book.
He's taking a look at his mon-story friends.
And this is where the story really begins...
When a monster jumps right out of the Gobbledygook's library book, it takes a bit of clever handling to stop the Scribbledynoodle from scribbling on things it shouldn't!

A delightful and fun book for preschoolers from the ever-popular singer, actress and children's TV presenter, Justine Clarke, teamed with Arthur Baysting.
