The follow-up to Sylvia Waugh's award-winning debut, The Mennyms. The Mennyms are faced with a crisis when plans to build a motorway straight through their home are announced. They've successfully survived living on Brocklehurst Road for forty years, carefully keeping the secret of their rag doll identity under wraps. But news of the motorway forces them to confront a cruel ultimatum- they can be destroyed with the house, or they can move out into the countryside. Either way the consequences will be devastating . . .
Wise, witty . . . fantastic * Financial Times *
Sylvia Waugh lives in Gateshead. She taught English at a local school for many years but has now given up teaching to devote her time to writing. She has three grown up children and two grandsons.
