1. Not Now, Bernard
A young boy repeatedly tries to get his distracted parents’ attention but is always told to wait, until a mischievous monster arrives, eats the parents and impersonates them — only to repeat the same dismissive response when the boy later needs help, underscoring the consequences of inattentiveness and the child’s overlooked needs.
