Publisher's Synopsis
Chaos abounds when Freda and Fred leave their animals to do a day's chores at Cold Custard Farm. Uncle Gustave Goat is hauled into the pond by the most enormous fish he has ever seen, little Lol the Lamb is chased by bees and Martha is horrified when her mischievous piglets run helter-skelter, higgledy-piggledy through the yard taking all the clean washing with them.
There is no end to the chaos until Fred and Freda return from their market day with presents for everyone, and peace and quiet ... of a kind ... settles once more over Cold Custard Farm and its inhabitants. This whimsical story is alive with chaotic good cheer and will bring a smile to anyone, young or old. Catherine Anholt's artwork is light, bright and detailed with a charming naive touch.
