The Name Collector of Fun Forest
by Hoko Takadono
On a trip to the Fun Forest, Marubo tells the children about the Namaemon - a creature who devours anyone or anything with a name, whereupon the name is recorded in a book on the creature's head. The friends later find the Namaemon napping, and discover that he has eaten their friends Bosako and Ururinzo!
