Monster Splodge Makes A Friend

Once upon a time there lived a monster called Splodge. He didn’t have many friends because everyone thought he was too ugly and too scary. He really wanted a friend, but there were no other monsters in the city.

Splodge stood out a lot; he had blue hair, red eyes and green scaly skin with big pimples. Everyone laughed at him, until one day another monster came to his school. She was called Spogla. She had purple hair and orange slimy skin. They instantly became friends with each other because no one else wanted to be their friends.

One evening all the children in Splodge and Spolga’s class had a party, but Splodge and Spolga weren’t invited. So they made a plan. They would scare everyone at the party, as payback for not being invited. So they dressed up scarily and went to the party.

They went to the back of the building and Splodge helped Spolga climb up to a window. She said ‘Booooo!’ And everyone in the party screamed. They saw all the children leave the party and then they felt bad.

So they explained to the children what they had done and why they had done it. Then the other children felt bad for being so mean to Splodge and Spolga so they all went back into the party and had a great time!
