'Brilliantly plotted . . . a spellbinder . . . it has a style that glows and crackles.' Spectator 'Hugely funny, provocative, pathetic and heroic.'

Thrown away, then rescued from a dustbin and repaired by a tramp, they set out on a dangerous quest for a family and a place of their own - the magnificent doll's house, the plush elephant and the tin seal they had once know in the toy shop.
