This unusual picture book is a great way to teach kids not to use those funny words adults sometimes use when they are angry. Elbert is at a fancy party when he hears one of those words. It is shown in the illustrations as a hairy black monster that sneaks into Elbert's mouth only to emerge in a shocking way when he has an accident with a croquet mallet. A magical fairy teaches Elbert to find other words to use in an emergency!
