Harry has accidentally burned down his kitchen. While repairs are underway, he persuades his Mum to let him go on holiday with his less than reliable uncle to a remote island. They stay with Uncle Tristram’s unconventional friend, Morning Glory and events conspire to make the trip a memorable one culminating in the ‘eating things on sticks’ challenge. This is a warm, funny story, with short chapters interspersed with lots of good line drawings. Harry is a very likable character and you worry for him as he unintentionally creates havoc.
