One tiny fly. One massive appetite. One accidental trip around the world!
Meet Trude, a lovable little fly with a big heart and a completely bottomless stomach. When the irresistible scent of a freshly baked birthday cake lures her into a cozy kitchen, Trude eats until she is completely round. But her sweet feast is cut short by Flecki the cat! In a frantic escape, Trude slips down the kitchen sink drain-and plunges headfirst into the adventure of a lifetime.
When she finally pops back out into the daylight, she isn't in her cozy kitchen anymore. She has been swept to the other side of the world!
What follows is a whirlwind, accidental tour of the globe. From dodging haughty seagulls in Athens to getting lost in the sweet treats of Istanbul's Grand Bazaar, Trude's rumbling belly keeps leading her on the wildest detours. She hitches a ride on a red double-decker bus in London, flies across the massive Atlantic Ocean, and lands right in front of the Statue of Liberty in New York!
Will Trude ever find her way back?
Just when she finally makes it to a major railway station near her home, she meets Frida, a frantic mouse looking for her missing husband. Trude faces a tough choice: board her train home, or stay behind to help a friend in need?
Join Trude and her unlikely crew of animal friends on a hilarious, heartwarming journey about brave choices, global adventures, and the true meaning of home.
Perfect for young adventurers, curious minds, and anyone who knows that the best stories usually start with a little snack.
