Marvellous Minerva's back...and more 'monstrously' delightful than ever. When she first appeared in last year's "Nobody Notices Minerva", critics and children instantly took the irrepressible, irresistible Boston terrier to their hearts. Mischievous, playful and more than a little bit naughty; she thoroughly embodied the lovable spirit of a toddler. Now, Wednesday Kirwan has done it again, as Minerva dons a monster costume - and starts behaving like one, too! Whenever Mum asks her to eat her green beans or Dad tells her to put on her pajamas, she just growls and says that monsters don't do that! But Minerva is about to find out that sometimes being a real child is better than being an imaginary beast.
