ОглавлениеAnd then quite suddenly everything changed.
Since Harry was caught, only the Not-So-Big Hoo-Min had ever come into the room where the collection was. The Big Hoo-Min never did. But one day – and it was daytime, Harry and George were asleep, their heads dug into the earth to hide them from the light – another Hoo-Min did come in.
It was the Not-So-Big Hoo-Min’s mother.
The reason she didn’t come into this room much was because she was scared to death of all the creepy and poisonous creatures in her son’s collection. She hated them.
But she was a very house-proud woman. She couldn’t go on for ever, not cleaning her son’s room, which was just as messy and dirty as most boys’ rooms are if they’re not cleaned.
