When Amy's mum goes to hospital, she leaves Amy a gift - a stuffed toy monster. When baby brother arrives home, the trouble starts. Little Monster hates the baby, and he/Amy go to great pains to prove it. Amy blames all the bad deeds on Little Monster, and mum and dad, at their wits end, decide Little Monster must go. Amy wants baby to go instead, but mum says, 'What would he do on his own?' Amy sees the point of this, but when Little Monster makes one last stand, and his doom is pronounced, she does the only possible thing and hides Little Monster - in the baby's crib. A really 'monster' jealousy problem this. Outstanding illustrations.
