A welcome addition to the Mrs Pepperpot series. Twelve listenable and readable stories about the little old woman who has a tendency to shrink unexpectedly to the size of a pepperpot. This collection follows the movement of the seasons and not least of its delights is the lightly drawn relationship between Mrs Pepperpot and her husband, who ends up getting 'a great big smacking kiss'.
