What is What Is the Matter, Mrs Long? about?

Mrs Long is walking along the street when she sees a black-and-yellow tiger, a big green dinosaur and a little fairy with a purple wand. Feeling suddenly ill, she rushes into Mr Lee’s shop. Mr Lee takes her to the doctor, but he soon sees the strange creatures too. When the tiger, dinosaur and fairy arrive at the doctor’s surgery, Mrs Long discovers the funny truth: they are children in Halloween costumes, ready to shout, “Trick or treat!”
