Tidley Squeak

His mum and dad said, “Go off and play.“But be home for tea at the end of the day.”But, unexpectedly, Tidley Squeak soon finds himself shivering cold, up high on a mountain, surrounded by sheep, maybe 30 and counting.Rather lost and rather cold, the adventure of a lifetime begins. With the help of some new-found friends, and plenty of close shaves, near misses and lucky escapes along the way, will Tidley make it home in time for tea?

Nick Marshall was inspired to write Tidley Squeak from a comment his late father made whilst walking on the family farm in Oxfordshire. A worried-looking rabbit dashed past them, zigzagged around a patch of nettles and disappeared through a gap in a hedge. ‘Oh dear,’ commented the old farmer. ‘Someone’s late for school!’ Further, Tidley Squeak’s adventures are afoot, with plenty of close shaves, near misses and lucky escapes along the way.
