The very best stories from the bestselling author of THE FLOODS.

Sid the mosquito isn't the only one exploring the delights of house Number Fourteen and its overgrown garden. Derek the rat is sniffing out old socks for supper. Ethel the chicken is busy trying to persuade the world she is not an orange, while Arnold the mouse is spending more time in the trap than out of it. Frank the ant has a terrible headache and just wants to be left alone, and Joey the budgie is having a bath in the dog's bowl.

Colin's acclaimed stories about the inhabitants of one particular garden are now collected in this newly illustrated special edition.
