"The Pig Family were looking forward to Ma's birthday. Pa wanted to give her a really special surprise. But what should it be? Rumours of the surprise spread, first to the dairy run by the goats, then the farm cats. The secret is overheard of the busy little mice and passed to the stoats, hard at work in their restaurant, the Herons don't believe what they hear but still the news spreads to the squirrel at work on Gallileyowl's portrait and on to the Badgers in their forge. All are agog and all is revealed in the wonderful moment of take-off." -- from the rear panel blurb. Fabulous art, with peep-hole windows from page to page.
