But once they've been safely captured in his thistle-cloth bag, what does Charlie do with all the beasties? This brilliant story from author-illustrator Tim Archbold will become a firm favorite with children and parents alike. Narrated in a hilarious, quirky style, with wonderfully illustrated beasties and bogles waiting to jump off each page, it will captivate readers until the final surprise twist.
