What is A Windy Day at Upney Junction about?

At the old, deserted Upney Junction station, a lively gang of mice is enjoying an ordinary day when a powerful wind begins to blow. Soon, leaves, papers and all sorts of unexpected objects are whirling through the station, causing confusion and plenty of trouble. The mice must work together to cope with the storm and protect their home. With energetic illustrations, playful chaos and plenty of surprises, this is a funny adventure about friendship, teamwork and the wild force of nature.
