Publisher's Synopsis
When the townsfolk hear the dreadful song of Bold Bad Ben, they lock their doors and huddle in their beds. Only one child peeps and he reports a monster as tall as a house with nails down to the ground and an evil expression. No one knows what to do to stop the monster. That is until the old toymaker sets off to find Bold Bad Ben and see what makes him act the way he does. This book, beautifully illustrated by cartoonist Kathy Wilcox, takes a funny look at the roots of social dislocation.
