Fungus the Bogeyman by Raymond Briggs

Fungus the Bogeyman takes us on a whirlwind tour of the dank, happily depressive and strangely philosophical world of the Bogeymen, revealing fascinatingly detailed insights into the life, thoughts and habits of your average bogeyman, bogeywoman and bogeychild.
