“I was up in the loft getting my sports gear,” said Bree. “And I felt a jagged hand grab my leg.”

“I think you are right,” agreed Bree’s dad. “I was up in the loft and I spotted a ragged green arm as it hid under the red blanket.”

“I think you need to cut the creeper in the garden,” Mum said to Dad. 8
