Tim's back and facing some BIG things!
We don't know his breed, or where he came from, all we really know is his size. Small. Very Small. In fact, if you think of a matchbox and halve it, then halve it again - got that That's about how big he is. Ever see a horse like that No Maybe you're not looking hard enough or maybe Tim the Tiny Horse is a one-off. Perhaps he's the result of global warming or some crazy mutation. We'll probably never know, but for the time being lets just accept the fact that he's here and enjoy his adventures.
In his new book of adventures, Tim the Tiny Horse has to deal with some BIG things. He falls in love for the first time with a lady fly who doesn't appreciate him, so he acquires a pet greenfly (called George) to love instead. He has fun being best-man at Fly's wedding, and experiences the joys and horrors of babysitting Fly's new baby. And then he decides to rent out his matchbox stable to a mad ladybird and her chaotic host of ant friends .
Tim's pluck and humour will delight everyone, in this beautifully illustrated book by family favourite Harry Hill.
