A whale and a seagull dance silently on a moon-drenched beach. A grasshopper pays a fortune for a speck of dust. A squirrel and an ant discover a mysterious feast with an invisible host in the depths of a forest.

These whimsical animal tales will captivate readers of all ages.
"Toon's stories are beautifully told, quirky and delightful . . . they're a joy!"
--Wendy Cooling, MBE, founder of Bookstart
"You cannot read this book and understand how anyone but Ahlberg could have illustrated it. She is the E. H. Shepard of the 21st century."
--Elizabeth Bird, School Library Journal
