Review: There is a Monster Under My Christmas Tree Who Farts

Remember the little monster under the bed who farts? Well, he’s back and he’s joining in the Christmas celebrations!

Tim Miller and Matt Stanton, the creators of There is a Monster Under My Bed Who Farts, have brought back the little green monster and his smelly clouds in There is a Monster Under My Christmas Tree Who Farts. Anyone for some bauble bombs or bottom burps amongst their jingle bells and ho ho hos?

Of course, the little monster isn’t just under the Christmas tree, he’s also interfering with present wrapping and Christmas tree decorating and he is even at Santa’s workshop! He’s ruining Christmas, especially when Mum and Dad don’t seem convinced that he even exists.

If you think most Christmas stories are too sweet, then you might find this too stinky Christmas story more to your liking. There is a Monster Under My Christmas Tree who Farts is sure to have little one’s giggling and perhaps finding someone to blame for their own ‘bottom burps’ during the holiday season.
