Boolar has his big chance of fame when he lands himself the plum role of Tom Thumb in the Puppet Theatre playing in the park. But Boolar's performance nerves get the better of him and an ill-fated romance mean that things don't turn out quite as Boolar would like. Despite this Boolar's sense of his own importance cause a rift between him and the mis-matched family of dolls. Can Boolar survive the pit-falls of stardom as well as negotiate the troubled area of romance and still stay true to himelf and his friends? Fortunately for him his family of dolls and the wonderful Mr and Mrs Mouse love him dearly and are on hand to offer help and advice just when Boolar needs it the most. In this fantastic book, and the series as a whole, Sally Gardner has brought all of life's mysterious and myriad adventures to play. Her characters are brilliant little microcosms of the human race and their stories are as touching as any can be.
