Muddles at the Manor by John Patience

Blodger decides that the gardens at the manor need something special and tries his hand at shaping hedges. An accident leaves him unable to work, and his young replacements make keeping the grounds tidy more complicated than expected. John Patience's illustrated Fern Hollow story follows a cascade of gardening mishaps in its friendly animal community.

Condition: Used hardcover with light rubbing and surface wear, small bumps at the corners and a price sticker on the front cover.
