Ever since Gafferty Sprouts last adventure, shes been VERY GOOD. No more finding lost Smidgen clans, no more pudding fights, definitely no more GHOSTS. She knows theres another clan still out there The Burrow and maybe they know the secrets of the MAGICAL knife that saved her from the ghosts. But itll have to wait until shes less grounded. Then a strange Smidgen steals her knife and sets out for The Burrow, and theres nothing for it. Gafferty has to follow. But the Smidgens of The Burrow arent the new friends Gafferty expected, and soon the Smidgens are in BIG, BIG trouble. The second book in a funny, magical adventure series for 7+ readers who love Terry Pratchett, Max and the Millions and The Borrowers.
If you put your copy of Harry Potter and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in the washing machine together, this would be the book that came out at the end. Dont put books in the washing machine though * Tom Fletcher on THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY GHOST *
