A grasshopper pays a fortune for a speck of dust. A squirrel and an ant discover a mysterious feast with an invisible host in the depths of a forest. These whimsical animal tales will captivate readers of all ages.“Toon’s stories are beautifully told, quirky and delightful . . . they’re a joy!” —Wendy Cooling, MBE, founder of Bookstart“You cannot read this book and understand how anyone but Ahlberg could have illustrated it.
