What is Mr Birdsnest and the House Next Door about?
Elmo and his sister adore playing in the 'jungle house' next door, filled with exotic surprises like a tiger in the garden and a bird-eating spider in the cupboard. Their adventures take a turn when the grumpy Mr Birdsnest moves in. When they suspect he's kidnapped their grandma, the siblings embark on a daring rescue mission, uncovering unexpected truths along the way.
