Description
Finding a cute creature he can't bear to abandon, a knight discovers love, friendship and family.
Down in the hollow, where creepy tangles grow, a knight finds something green, something grotti. He explains that he can't stay because he is very busy ("I've got beasts to battle and kingdoms to defend!"). But he can't just leave this sad, lost - and very big-eyed! - baby monster, can he?
With originality and humour, Leonie Lord explores the way babies enter our lives: demanding new levels of care and attention, but also filling us up with love and stealing our hearts for ever.
