Blue Monster wants to play with Rabbit, but Rabbit is sleeping and doesn't want to play. So, what should Blue Monster do?

Blue Monster does something you should never do and then... he does it again and again!

Now he definitely has no one to play with! He feels sad, lonely and very guilty. But when Blue Monster opens his mouth and yawns... what a surprise!

Things may get better after all! If Blue Monster only says he's sorry...

A wonderfully funny and surprising picture book. Reading Zone

Outrageously good. Achuka
