|title=Monster, Be Good!
|rating=4.5
|genre=For Sharing
|summary=No-one need be frightened of these beasties, and it’s not a story about conquering fears. Instead, these are miscreant monsters who are put in their places with some very firm guidance. Children will recognise the orders instantly, for parents come out with them in varying tones of tiredness, resignation or irritation on a daily basis. In fact, I have the sneaky feeling that the author is on the side of the adults.

|summary=In the mid-to-late eighties the German Democratic Republic looked like enduring. Bolstered by a system of ''Mitarbeiter'' (''fellow workers'' is a much more amenable term than ''informers'') the Stasi kept their populace in check. Western media was easy to censor in those days. Border controls were brutal. People were shot on a regular basis trying to cross the no-man's-land into West Berlin and along the other inner German borders.
