Not Now, Bernard

The hilarious and much-loved tale of a boy whose busy parents never notice him. Whatever Bernard says to Mum and Dad, the answer’s always the same: “Not now, Bernard!” So how can he tell them that there’s a hungry monster in the garden? It’s gobbled up his dinner, it’s broken his toys – and now it wants to eat him up! Bursting with imagination and comedy, this classic story invests a familiar real-life scenario with an unforgettably surreal touch.
