Tashi and the Mixed-up Monster

In the fourteenth book about the ever-popular Tashi, a fire-breathing monster breaks out of Wise-as-an-Owl’s workshop and threatens them all, and when Tashi is accused of killing the carp in Soh Meen’s pond, he uses a Truth Potion to find the real culprit.

‘Run, children,’ said Wise-as-an-Owl. ‘No, hide! It’s a creature from the past – a fearsome, fire-breathing monster.’

When Much-to-Learn gets ahead of his lessons in the Book of Spells, he creates a monster with the head of a lion, the body of a goat and the tail of a serpent. Everyone is in danger, unless Tashi can sneak by the terrible chimera to get the magic formula that will destroy it. And when Tashi is accused of killing the carp in Soh Meen’s pond he serves a Truth Potion to his neighbours to find the real culprit.
