Nelly the Monster Sitter: The Squurms at No. 322: Book 2
Kes Gray, Chris Jevons
Nelly isn’t scared of monsters. In fact, she babysits for them. From the bestselling author of the OI FROG! and DAISY books comes this hilarious, action-packed series for fans of THE BOLDS and BARRY LOSER.
‘If monsters are real, how come I’ve never seen one?’
‘Because they never go out.’
‘Why don’t monsters ever go out?’
‘Because they can never get a babysitter.’
Ever played hide and seek with an oozy orange Squurm, or ice-skated with a baby Thermitt? Every time Nelly rings on a new monster family’s doorbell she’s up for a new challenge. Come on her monster-sitting adventures in this laugh-out-loud funny second book in the NELLY THE MONSTER SITTER series.
Kes Gray is one of the Independent’s top ten children’s authors, and winner of the Red House Children’s Book Award.
This story now comes with brand-new illustrations; it was previously published in a collection entitled: Grerks, Squurms & Water Greeps.

it was a bit boring, but I liked the end of it.
Master Peanuts Submarine 26.08.2023

It was a great book with loads of pictures but it didn't start well i think. The person I liked the most is Nelly as she is the main character and is really brave. I'll recommend this book to anyone looking for a book to read.
Doctor Pablo Sparrow 25.08.2023

this another one of the, Nelly the monster sitter books. I liked how nobody know what monsters look like so each book you'll never know what happens. I like stories with monsters and this one was really funny.
Empress Peaches Slingshot 20.08.2023

My favourite character is Slop because he’s very active and always loves to win. I have recommended the book to someone but they didn’t read the book.
Princess Majorca Jamboree 02.08.2023

It was interesting because was quite an adventure for Nelly . It was a bit dramatic at the end.
Countess Aspidistra Bonsai 25.07.2023

I enjoyed it because it was about monsters. I didn't have a favourite character but I really liked the story. I liked knowing what Squurms are and they have a weird spelling.
Sergeant Bart Archer 20.08.2022

I like it but its a litle short and i think it needs alot more instead of two to four things that they do but i like it its good but i gave it 4 stars because of that.
Principal Pinky Slingshot 07.08.2022

I love Natalie because she is soooooo gullible and when Nelly cant find slop you really think he is in the sandpit I love this book

I really love these books!
Viscountess Gloriana Supermarket 27.08.2021

It was fiction. My favourite character was Slop. He always won all of the games. I would recommend this book.
Corporal Ice-T Remmington 17.08.2021

I loved reading about all the funny games and I can't believe the little squurm won all of them. It was really funny when they played bat and ball because it was so different to how we play- it was the animal bat, not the object.

In the past few weeks I have really enjoyed reading Nelly the Monster Sitter. I think they are really enjoyable and funny books to read.
Principal Sunny Skateboard 30.08.2020

I liked it because it has lots of weird characters in it
Dame Cynthia Palm-tree 25.08.2020

Its about a monstersitter named Nelly. she gets a call from the squurms and they say that they want to go to the cinema. They want to leave Nelly with there 5 (and a bite) year old monster named Slop who gets bored easily. Join Nelly on this thrilling adventure of playing games and babysitting someone with 6 eyes!!!
Baron Neptune Foxtail 05.08.2020

This is. a copy of one of the Nelly the monster sitter stories in the first book. Its not very different though, a few small changes and different pictures do not make me like these books any less. I might recommend this to early or readers who prefer shorter, easier books.
