Harold Bletchley has survived sheep stampedes, camping disasters, missing children and more Gibberling chaos than any hotel owner should reasonably be expected to endure.
So when the Bayview Hotel is shortlisted for the National Small Hotel of the Year Award, Harold should be delighted.
There is just one problem.
The ceremony is in London.
And Plinka, Doff and Grom are invited.
Harold prepares carefully. He makes rules. Lots of rules.
No wandering.
No stealing spoons.
No climbing statues.
No starting businesses.
No bringing home animals.
And, most importantly, Grom must stay away from the pigeons.
Naturally, things begin going wrong almost immediately.
From chaos on the Underground and encounters with London's pigeons to Buckingham Palace, Big Ben and an unforgettable awards ceremony, the Gibberlings take the capital by storm.
But their London adventure soon takes an unexpected turn.
A mysterious man is watching them.
A strange symbol from their past appears again.
An old expedition chest disappears from a museum.
And evidence emerges suggesting that Plinka, Doff and Grom may not be the only Gibberlings in the world.
When Grom suddenly disappears, Harold faces his greatest fear: somewhere among millions of people in one of the world's biggest cities, his smallest and most unpredictable companion is missing.
Finding him will uncover secrets buried for more than a century-and introduce someone who could change everything the Gibberlings thought they knew about where they came from.
Funny, mysterious, heart-warming and packed with Gibberling mayhem, The Gibberlings Take London is the fifth adventure in M.J. Webb's family-friendly series.
London has millions of people.
Thousands of pigeons.
Hundreds of rules.
And now... the Gibberlings.
The capital doesn't stand a chance.
