Who Took My Hairy Toe?

Reach for this book when your child is craving the physical excitement of a campfire story or testing their own boundaries with fear in a safe, controlled environment. It is an ideal pick for those energetic evenings when a child needs a story that allows them to be loud and expressive before finally settling down for sleep. This rhythmic retelling follows an old woman who finds a hairy toe in her garden and takes it home, only to be pursued by its original, monstrous owner. Through repetitive, spooky refrains and building suspense, the story explores the concept of consequence and the thrill of the unknown. It is perfectly aged for 4 to 8-year-olds who enjoy the delicious tension of a 'jump scare' ending that dissolves into giggles.
