"The Hope family lived by the sea in a squeeze-in, sit-down, have-a-cup-of-tea sort of house... that had its hands in its pockets and wore a tin roof over one eye."
Mr Hope invents devices that don't work properly but, when the landlords decided to build apartments next door and the cool breeze disappears, along with the view of the ocean, Mr Hope's inventive brain goes into overdrive to find a solution.
A whimsical and imaginative story about a family, their dog and their endeavour to keep together, from the author of John Brown, Rose & the Midnight Cat and The Bunyip of Berkeley's Creek. Illustrated throughout, it's a delightful chapter book for readers aged 7 plus.
