AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Jake and Pete and the Drain Boggart, Bog, are up to their usual adventures. Jake's sense of smell returns in the Garden of Lost Things and Pete grows more and more disgruntled with his poor vision. As Jake tries to adjust to a world of strange scents and odours, Pete reveals a dark-side as his hostility and anger mounts. On top of this, the unlikely trio are off to a magpie's wedding! And, as Bog explains to the kittwins, it is a very special honour indeed to be invited to a magpie's wedding. What will they give for a gift? How will Pete behave while he is in this mood? Will poor Pete ever see again?' (Publication summary)
