It's time to tidy the toy room! Cowboy Ted, Pretty Kitty and Hector set to work, leaving Spike, who's a little clumsy, to sit very still. Then Cowboy Ted finds a shiny red wagon. His discovery creates a touch of friction between the foursome as they just can't agree how to play with it. Thehappy toy room is overshadowed by sulking and falling out until another discovery - this time a trampoline that the friends can enjoy together - brightens the atmosphere and turns the tidying up into a game that's best played with four! Jo Partis has captured the charm and humour of hertoddler-inspired characters - through both her illustrations and dialogue - and, consequently, the interplay between them in this toy room soap opera is delightfully entertaining.
