Synopsis

Bertie Bun comes from a long line of bakers, but he's utterly bored of bread! Yearning for adventure, he dreams of becoming a butcher's boy, a bus driver's boy, or even a balloonist's boy. However, his whimsical wishes lead him into a series of amusing mishaps. This delightful tale, inspired by the classic 'Happy Families' card game, is perfect for young readers to enjoy at home or school.
