What is Little Lunch: The Old Climbing Tree about?

At Little Lunch, fifteen minutes is more than enough time for trouble. Battie is determined to save the old climbing tree, while Debra-Jo believes it is too dangerous to keep. Soon the playground is divided, and both sides begin campaigning to get their way. In two more funny schoolyard adventures, the children squeeze into a forbidden gap and Melanie tries to count absolutely everything. With lively illustrations and plenty of mischief, these stories show how much can happen before the bell rings.
