English Summary/英文概要： One day the Twins, Henry and Henrietta, are having a St. George-and-the-Dragon battle in Mum’s bedroom with Curd as the Dragon, when they have a dreadful calamity and spill talcum powder all over
the bedroom! After telling them off and tidying up, Mum accidentally leaves Curd the Lion and her favourite jewelled brooch unnoticed beside the bed. A Raven flies in and steals it.
Mum blames the Twins and says that, unless her brooch is returned before their Birthday in four days’ time, she’s not only going to cancel their Party but also give their four Animals, Curd the Lion, Pilgrim Crow, Sweeney the Heenie and O’Flattery the Snake, to the Charity Shop!
Curd leads the Animals out that night, all the way to the Back
of Beyond, to try to find the Great Raven and rescue the brooch, seeking clues from all the creatures they meet. And so begins an Amazing Adventure…
