Mrs Pepperpot's Outing



A fresh cover and reissue of one of the original and classic Pepperpot compilations

A day out in the countryside is never an ordinary outing if Mrs Pepperpot's involved. First, she has to be rescued from a mountain of ice cream by an abandoned kitten. Then she has to use her wits to outsmart a crafty fox and rescue a puppy from the circus. In fact she shrinks five times - and Mr Pepperpot hardly notices a thing!

A compilation of four fantastic short stories including: Mrs Pepperpot’s Outing; Mrs Pepperpot Has a Visitor From America; Gapy Gob Gets a Letter From the King; Mrs Pepperpot and the Budgerigar.
