Return to go : my autobiography af Jim Slater
Slater Walker (Subject)
The monster in this odd story has a very strange diet. The great Gulper, as he is called, was caught and put in a zoo. It lived on oil, gallons a day. In the end it saved the country by drinking oil slicks from any large oil tanker accidents. The colour illustrations are quite basic.
