The Monster at the end of this Book – Review
Rewind a few decades to when The Monster at the end of this Book was being read to you!
If you were like me, you might remember Grover begging you not to turn the page because there was a monster at the end of the book. You put poor old Grover through torture by turning each page.
Grover had explained very clearly why you shouldn’t turn pages. If you stopped turning pages, you wouldn’t get to the monster at the end of the book. Why, oh why didn’t you listen?
Grover takes matters into his own hands.
Well, since you didn’t listen to his bullet-proof logic and ignored his warnings, Grover resorted to some ultra-innovative ways to stop you from turning pages.
He tied the pages together with ropes, nailed pages together and even tried making a solid brick wall to protect you from yourself! But you were far too strong for mere ropes and walls. You just kept ploughing through pages.
Soon Grover realised he was powerless to stop a renegade like you from turning pages, so as a last resort, he begged you. It was a pretty good idea, but unfortunately, his begging had little effect on a stone cold picture book hero like yourself.
And of course, at the end, Grover was the monster at the end and Grover was soooooo embarrassed that he was scared. You on the other hand were the bravest kid in the world, charging towards the monster all along. And you couldn’t wait to do it all again and again and again.
