Humphrey and the Squirrel

Humphrey and the Squirrel is a prequel to Ian Thomson's successful novel, Humphrey and Jack. Humphrey does battle with his nosy neighbour, Mrs Bellingham - with Aristotle the cat - and with a malicious squirrel - each of whom is a threat to his beloved garden birds. You could read the story as a taster for the novel or to meet again characters you've already encountered. Either way, you'll enjoy Thomson's sharp plotting and twinkling wit.
