When Dad loses his car keys, toddler Mary suspects that they have ended up down the back of the chair so Dad begins to search. But what an odd assortments of objects are living down the back of the chair! This lively, eccentric poem is a visual explosion of fun and imagination, featuring dragons, pirates, treasure, lions, elephants and many more. But what will a troubled father win from down the back of the chair?

It is fiction book. The rhyming words makes it more interesting. My favourite favourite rhyming word was lion with the curly hairs.They found lots of money at the end. I would definitely recommend this book.

I like this story because when you read it, it's like a poem and there are some good rhymes.
