Dream of a Summer Night

The narrative follows young Tom, who is left with his great-uncle in Oxford, only to go missing, prompting a quest led by Bodley, a toy bear. Alongside Bloomsbury, a bear from the British Museum, they search for a lost manuscript while navigating a blend of fantasy and reality. The story features Russell Rat, a streetwise hero, and explores themes of childhood, identity, and the interplay of generations. With humor and philosophy from talking animals, it offers an engaging experience for both young readers and adults alike.
