Colin’s new castle is perfect in every way – apart from the DUCK.
The duck pops up when Colin’s in the bath. When he’s watching telly. When he’s ON THE LOO. QUACK!
But where there’s a will, there’s a way. Colin has a PLAN. Will he succeed in banishing Duck from his castle and leading the bird-free life that he dreams of?
Shiver me timbers!’ Pirate Jed is not happy . . . Imagine a pirate who feels seasick all the time. That’s Pirate Jed! Fed up with bobbing around on the rollicking, rolling sea, he decides to pack up his pirate paraphernalia and heads off in search of a home on land. His adventures take him on a journey where he meets a whole cast of animal characters, desperate for his help, and they all join in his search for a new home. Finally they meet Farmer Ted who is fed up with life on dry land – so he and Jed decide to swap! So, with a cheeriyo-ho-ho, Pirate Jed and his new friends have a perfect new home! A gentle adventure about friendship, fun and finding your place.
