Life is calm and quiet for best friends Armadillo and Hare, who live together in the Big Forest. Until one day, all-singing, all-dancing Flamingo comes to the Forest and turns their peaceful lives upside down!
With their friends Wombat, Tortoise, Invisible Stick Insect and Bear (of the polar variety), Armadillo and Hare must navigate all the trials, tribulations and triumphs of life with a new neighbour.
These delightful tales of friendship and finding joy in the ordinary are perfect bedtime stories.

Bestselling author Jeremy Strong (My Brother's Famous Bottom) returns with more future-classic tales from the Big Forest to warm your heart.
Jeremy Strong has been writing for children for more than forty years and has published over a hundred titles, many of which have been translated. His work is much used in schools as the humour he employs have proved a great way to lure children into a love of reading. He also talks in schools and book festivals world-wide, pushing the joys of both reading and writing. At one time or another he has worked in offices, put the jam in doughnuts, been a petrol attendant and he also taught for 16 years until he managed to write his way out of it. He claims his hobbies are sleeping and eating crusty bread but really he likes mooching around galleries or indeed just mooching around. He is married to Gillie and has a son and daughter, two step-daughters, six grandchildren, four hens and an increasingly famous cat, Jeeves. They live near Bath.
