Synopsis

Polly and Jack's parents accept that they can't afford to run the family antiques shop any more and cranky Mr Fowler decides he's going to buy the shop to expand his restaurant. Polly and Jack hate the thought of parting with all their favourite things, especially the bear and the water buffalo's head. But at the eleventh hour the shop is saved in the MOST unusual way. . . . .

Présentation de l'éditeur

Jack and Polly live happily above their parents antique shop where spiders, moths, woodworm, and dust nestle amongst the bric-a-brac. When they are faced with losing their arch enemy, the horrible Mr Fowler, the children realise what they will miss - the tiger-skin rug, the old gramophone and piles of records, the jar with the strange smell, and especially the water buffalo's head with the wonky horn. Help comes in unexpected ways.
