A 'fantastic' story, full of outrageous 'happenings' and puns! A tale for all those who love football and horror. Dracula, a ghoul, a yeti, a Skeleton, Frankenstein are just some of the members of this monster team conjured up by Lee Pressman in diabolical language. Their opponents are a down and out local football side. David Higham's pictures tell the tale and support readers through some demanding vocabulary. This humorous story is well worth reading even if the ending is abrupt and will arouse tremendous interest from many young readers although I suspect adults will 'dread' this book.
