Simon & Schuster Childrens Books Ogden the Ogre was worried one night. 'My jim-jams have grown far too short and too tight! How has my tum got so terribly wide? I only eat twelve meals a day,' Ogden sighed. The people said, 'Jim-jams too tight and too short? Overweight ogres should take up a sport!' So Ogden does take up a sport - and he does it with gusto!
