Two boisterous boys who made lots of noise, found it dreadfully hard to be good;always charging and barging, fighting and biting, and not acting quite as they should.Patrick and Wayne drove their parents insane, but they could be good if they tried.Still, theyd roar and theyd claw, theyd scoot and theyd shootuntil someone eventually cried.nbsp;An action-packed, hilarious story about two wild, rascally boys and the trouble they cause in the garden, until the plants decide to teach them a lesson because, as the boys discover, plants have eyes and ears too!
