True friends will always forgive - even when you accidentally hit them
on the head! When Figgy's boisterous brothers start playing with her
friend Jefferson Bear's favourite tickling stick, Figgy tells them to
stop. But they don't and Figgy finds herself drawn into their game -
until she accidentally hits JB on the head. The brothers run off and
hide the stick, but Figgy is too embarrassed to tell JB what has
happened. Her nose goes all pink and her tail goes all twitchy, and she
sets off to find where the stick is hidden. Only when she has found it,
after a long, incident-filled search, does she own up. JB forgives her
everything, and the two friends celebrate with a midnight feast. This
very funny story is perfectly pitched for a young audience, who will
readily identify with Figgy's predicament. The cast of animal
characters, including Buncle the Badger and Hoptail the Squirrel, as
well as Figgy and JB themselves, will delight all readers, young and
old.
