What kind of monster did Nelly meet this Saturday?
Just before nine o’clock, the monsters arrived home with a napkin full of mints(薄荷).
“These are for you, Nelly. We went out for a meal and we had a lovely time.”
“So did we, didn’t we, girls!” said Nelly.
Blotch and Bog gave Nelly a monster hug and Nelly waved goodbye.
The next day, Nelly had her own phone plugged into her bedroom.
All the monsters in the neighborhood heard about Nelly. Nelly the monster-sitter was very much in demand.
On Monday, she sang songs to Curdle, the baby monster at Number 16.
On Tuesday, she played hide-and-seek with Gunk, the slimy little monster at Number 7.
And of course, Nelly had fun monster-sitting on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
“I like being a monster-sitter,” thought Nelly, happily.
It was Saturday evening. Nelly’s phone rang again.
“Could you please, please, please monster-sit for us this evening? We’d so, so, so like to go out and have some fun. We’re at Number 28.” croaked the voice.
Nelly pressed the doorbell of Number 28. “There are so many monsters around here!” she smiled.
The door handle turned and the door opened slowly. Two bloodshot eyes peered round the door at Nelly.
“Are you Nelly the monster-sitter?” said the voice.
“That’s me! Can I come in?” smiled Nelly.
The door opened. These two monsters had two arms, two legs, and one head each, just like Nelly’s mum and dad.
They didn’t look like monsters at all.
Stay tuned!
