Overview
Is the story of a little girl who can’t stop fidgeting in class and is told by her Great Aunt that she has “ants in her pants”. One night, The Anthill Mob – a gang of giant ants – emerge from her pants drawer, kidnap her, and take her away to an anthill deep in the forest, where she works as a slave for the enormously fat Queen Ant, who happens to bear an uncanny resemblance to her Great Aunt. Befriended by two smaller-than-average ants (Ant and Dick) a hilarious and darling rescue ensues to get Bridget back home. These are fun but educational books – written in comical rhyme, and colourfully illustrated – aimed at helping parents use bed-time stories to get their children to snap out of bad habits. Children will be so excited by Fidgety Bridget’s adventure that they won’t be able to keep still! The Monstrous Morals series is an educational way of helping parents to get their messages across in a fun way. Each story comes with not only a Monstrous Moral but with a Monstrous Mouthfuls glossary of new words for young readers to add to their vocabularies.
