Monster Moving Day
Bonk's house is filled from corner to corner.
“There’s no more room for my tennis ball collection!” Bonk says.
“Or my comic book collection.”
“Or my stuffed bunnies!” Bonk says.
“There is a big house across town,” says Jupe.
“Maybe you could move.”
“But I like my little house,” says Bonk.
“It is right next door to my friends.”
“It has secret hiding places.”
“It has a creaky floor.”
“That’s true,” says Jupe.
“But the big house will have space
for all your collections.”
“Hmm,” says Bonk.
“I do like my collections.”
“Maybe moving is a good idea.”
The monsters help Bonk pack
everything into boxes.
They move the boxes to the new house.
“Now you have plenty of space,” says Jupe.
That night, Bonk looks for secret
hiding places.
He jumps on the floors to see if
they are creaky.
He looks around for his friends.
“This is no good,” Bonk says.
That night, Bonk has a thought.
He takes bags of tennis balls to Lurk’s house.
He takes boxes of comic books to Uzzle’s house.
He takes baskets of stuffed bunnies to Jupe’s house.
Bonk moves everything else back to his old house.
“Now I have space,” says Bonk.
In the morning, the monsters have surprises.
They have tennis balls, comic books, and stuffed bunnies.
But even better, they have Bonk right next door again.
“Welcome home, Bonk!”
