Tom refers to his grandfather as 'Collar' because he drags him around on a lead. One day, Tom decides that he will take Collar on a walk to see the puddles he has named after the members of the family, but the puddles are not there. Collar insists that this is because it hasn't rained, but Tom believes that it's just because they haven't been put in yet. He wanders off, leaving Collar talking to Mrs Whitebobblehat, and comes across just the person he needs ...Finally, puddles restored to their full, family-resembling glory, Tom and Collar go home for tea.

My (now adult) kids loved the Raymond Briggs stories and I bought this one for my nephew who is 5. He even takes it to bed and school with him! One delighted little boy - the added excitement for him was a parcel addressed to him, delivered by the postman. Thanks Amazon - more orders on their way.

This book is delightful. I warmly recommend it for grandparents, grandchildren, peddle enthusiasts and the public at large. A wonderful book to share.
