about the book

The dragon family live in a tree house in Whither Wander Wood. They share the wood with other animals amongst trees which withdraw their roots at night, to meet and greet each other and to exchange the current gossip.

The dragons and their friends shop at The Cookie Shop and watch Henrietta Hen juggling her tasty eggs. Reg the Veg supplies them with scrunchy vegetables and fruity fruits.  

One day, Mean Man arrives in the wood intent on cutting down all the trees and erecting monstrous buildings in their place. The Whither Wander Wood animal residents devise a plan to thwart Mean Man. Finally he leaves the wood promising never to return.  

All the animals hold a celebratory party with eggs on toast, scrunchy vegetables, fruit and cake.

Peace comes once more to Whither Wander Wood.
