Synopsis
At first Peter isn't keen on his teacher's plan to dig a vegetable garden to celebrate the Queen's Jubilee. Then he starts to dig up some interesting things - a huge worm, a big beetle, bits of china, an old coin and what looks like a giant cucumber but turns out to be a lot more exciting!

Together with the poet Ted Hughes, Michael devised and set up the position of Children's Laureate, created to bring attention to the importance of writing for children. He lives in Devon where, together with his wife Clare, he started the charity Farms for City Children 30 years ago. They now run three farms, which are visited by a large number of children each year. Tor Freeman received a degree in illustration from Kingston University in 1999 and went on to become a freelance illustrator.
