Hello, I’m a Minotaur and my home is a maze called The Labyrinth.

If you’re not sure what that is, then I’ll tell you – It’s a maze! I’ve lived there all my life, but I still get lost sometimes. My little friend, Blue Ted comes with me everywhere. He’s good at finding his way around, you see. I spend a lot of time reading in my Labyrinth. The trouble is, sometimes I put a book down, and it takes me ages to find it again! That’s when I have to ask Blue Ted to help me find it. It’s good to have a friend like that, don’t you think? Have you got a best friend?
