Synopsis

An extraordinarily warm and funny book about a big brother's courage and inventiveness when he discovers his parents have been run over by a truck - or have they? 'It's just you and me now,' I said, 'alone in the world. But I'll look after you very, very well. Everything will be just like normal.' 'I think this has the same dry humour as All the Dear Little Animals. It is so true to childhood - the boy taking on responsibility and acting beyond his years - and is all about the power of imagination.' Julia Marshall, publisher.
