One dark and windy night rat goes to bed early to read a scary story when...Tap. Tap. Tap. Gurgle. Gurgle. Thud! Somebody or something was making creepy noises around the house. Was it a ghost or a monster? Rat's wild imaginings run riot as he investigates, but fortunately it was only the wind, until his friend mouse comes to join him...

A bit of a scary ending to this one as it really does turn out to be a monster at the end. Unlike 'The Great Granny Robbery' though, I've never had any complaints about it scaring young children so it can't be that bad. Like 'Father Christmas' this book still earns me a few royalties in it's Pearson Education Learning English edition.
