A zany story of friendship

Daniel Postgate's THE SNAGGLEGROLLOP receives Nick Price's fun drawings as it tells of a fantasy monster called a snagglegrollop. Sam's family won't even let him have a dog or cat, so how will they let him keep a monster? But the snagglegrollop endears himself in this zany story of friendship.

Excellent

Sam asks his parents if he can have a cat or dog and they say no, so he asks for a Snaggle Grollop. When his parents ask what it is he says he doesn't know he just made it up. Then the next day he returns home from school with one. This is a fun story for the whole family with well done illustrations; a story that will keep children's attentions with fun to be had by everyone with the Snaggle Grollop's assistance.

The Snagglegrollop

Parents, be careful what you agree to! Sam wanted a pet. He wanted one very badly. He kept asking his parents if he could have a dog or a cat but they kept saying no. Finally, one day, Sam asked if he could have a snagglegrollop. Thinking it was an imaginary creature, his parents agreed. Of course, in walked the snagglegrollop. At first, Sam's parents didn't know what to do. They couldn't very well change their mind after they'd made a promise. The Snagglegrollop is a hilarious story. We`d definitely like a snagglegrollop at our house, or even a quibblesnuff.
