These are the second three stories of the Tollins, in which they face the trials of theatre, radio and armed invasion. The book contains medium peril, such as when Sparkler catches his hand in a pair of pliers.
In Romeo and Beryl', Sparkler discovers an old human book and decides to put on a play. It is a story of great love, with quite a bit of shouting. At the same time, a new craze sweeps Chorleywood, as dragonfly racing literally takes off.
In Radio', the Dark Tollins of Dorset invade in force, with a cat. Sparkler, Wing and Grunion must find a way to save themselves and possibly even the cat.
Finally, in Bones', the Tollins leave Chorleywood on a mission of mercy.
We will discover the importance of hot tea and toast in such desperate times.
As well as jam obviously. You can't have hot tea and toast without jam. It just wouldn't be right. Strawberry, of course:
the king of jams.
