'Have you ever wanted a pet monster?
If you are like me, the answer is NO, because you think monsters don't exist.
If you are like Willow, the answer is YES DEFINITELY.

'Willow and I found an ancient spell book called the BIGGE BOKE of fetching monsters, which shows you how to make REAL MONSTERS. We made HODGEPODGE, who's a bit furry and a bit stinky. He's my best friend.

'Willow wants to make a best friend, but I'm worried. Now that I know monsters are REAL, what if this new one is REALLY dangerous?' (Publication summary)

'I'm Artie. I'm eleven years old.

'I do not believe in ghosts, or monsters.

'I do believe in science.

'I also believe that my step-sister Willow is kinda terrifying.

'Willow and I found a weird old book in the attic of our new house. It's called the Big Boke of Fetching Monsters.

'And it tells you how to make your own monster.

'But that's impossible.

'You DEFINITELY can't make a monster - because MONSTERS DO NOT EXIST.'
