The Beast tells Ebeneezer to find him something new…he wants to eat a human child! 😮 ).

The books recommended reading age is 8 and up but as with my daughter, I think younger children may also enjoy having it read to them (but, don’t forget the voices, my daughter particularly enjoyed my Beast impression). We would read a few chapters every night and she was able to perfectly recap what had happened the previous night which demonstrated to me how much she truly enjoyed listening to this story. I do believe that with a whole set of illustrations the book will be even more amazing to read and I’m sure even more funny than it already is. I enjoyed the book and the humour in it, and I would like to see what happens in the second book, which is out in 2021.

This looks like a super fun read, the cover is pretty and I love the green sprayed edges! I have to say that there is something really cool about books with coloured edges and in this case the green adds to the mystery of the book.

He decides she’d be a good feast for the beast, but when he gets home with Bethany the beast isn’t impressed. I really couldn’t put this book down from the minute I started reading it. He lives in 15 story house and has that he could ever wish for.

He lives with a Beast in his attic who he feeds all manner of things and in return the beast vomits out anything Ebeneezer wants. My grandson loves weird and wacky books, so I hope he’ll love this one, it certainly looks exciting, especially when the monster requires a new meal to eat. Days before his 512th birthday the beast feels hungry again, and while Ebenezer needs the beast to give him a special potion to help him stay young (a potion he receives every year) the beast wants a special meal in return. There’s even a funny ‘about the author section’ which reads just like a chapter of the book too (rather than a more ‘sensible’ biography).
