What happens when children trade hugs and laughter for fancy toys This story is an entertaining and inspiring look at what would happen if kids could trade their mums hugs for the best toys. Themes of family importance, spending time together, overcoming materialism (or "intangibles" are often more important than material stuff). Overall children have a lot of fun in this story as they spy on the "bad guys" find out the magic that is fuelled by their intangibles and what is more important than the fanciest cricket bat. Engaging story, boys will enjoy too, parents and teachers will enjoy with their kids, teaching notes planned for release, family-friendly, fun, helps children to appreciate what is good in their lives...
