A beautiful and moving picture book from Waterstones Children's
Laureate, Joseph Coelho, tells the story of how a big, hairy
argument gets in between two best friends. "The argument came from
nowhere. It sat huge and bloated in the middle of the playground
between me and my best friend." This big hairy monster appears out
of the blue one day, splitting up the best friends and growing
bigger and bigger, until it starts to ruin all the children in the
playground's fun. Together, they learn how to shrink the monster
until it vanishes completely, to the point where they can't even
remember what it looks like! Coelho's gentle and lyrical verse pair
perfectly with Allison Colpoys' beautiful illustrations to create a
book which will be treasured by young readers. This is an ode to
the power of an apology, and to treasuring a special bond that runs
deeper than even the friends realised.
