The Bogey Man (S)

The first of Jesper W. Nielsen trilogy: Buldermanden, Lykkefanten and Ogginoggen. The two siblings Ida and Skrubsak are visiting their grandmother, a harsh woman without much understanding of small people and their thoughts and feelings. When the children show signs of naughtiness, she threatens them with the Bogey Man, who lives in the chimney and eats bad children. Grandmother has given Skrubsak a yelping teddy bear, and severely affected by jealousy Ida suggests to him that he should show the teddy bear to the Bogey Man. Fearless Skrubsak follows Ida's proposal - so far that he is lowered into the deep chimney.
