Tabitha Plimtock lives in a house at the very edge of the world. She is a go-getter - that is, a dogsbody forced to go and get things - for her nasty relatives Gower, Gristle, Bertha and Cousin Wilbur. One of Tabitha’s endless chores involves descending the cliff face, via a net that hangs from the back of the house, to collect eggs, nuts and other things from the inhabitants of the wall. When rumours begin to circulate of monsters climbing from the base to gobble up unsuspecting wall-dwellers, Tabitha is worried for all her friends on the wall.

In this playful story, a rascally monster with zany blue hair is discovered living under little Elizabeth Sue Gloo's stairs. He is the culprit behind many mischiefs that occur in the house—hiding socks from the laundry, tormenting the cats, chipping the good china, and using dad's toothbrush to groom the dog. Finally exasperated at his antics, Elizabeth gives the little scamp a firm talking-to, resulting in some surprising tears from the Gorgle.
