Harry (short for Harriet) and her three sisters continue their adventures in their new home with their friend Jonny the Wheelbarrow. To their surprise, their cousins, from whom they had escaped, decide to launch an attack and claim victory over Harry, her sisters and their Mother. What the cousins don't realise is that they will also be up against other ants and all the garden creatures including Stewart the spider, Harold the hedgehog, Reggie the robin, Frank the earthworm and many more.
The Ant and the Wheelbarrow series combines fiction with fact and provides a useful educational tool in a fun and original way. An explanation of what an ant nest contains and how it functions is provided at the end of this book with some key terms explained throughout. Something that both adults and children will enjoy.
