In Book 4 the rescued egg from book 1 makes a reappearance in the form of Flotsam the Chick - an adorable fluffy baby, who is desperate to hang around her rescuers, Tiny and Muffin, but can’t help getting into trouble. In this case, she disappears into the terrifying caves, haunted by the mythical ‘Wandering Puffin’ - the last creature who went missing there. Muffin, Tiny and their friends launch a rescue mission, but when the darkness threatens to overcome them they remember that puffins are stronger together - and then something magical happens!
Cath Howe’s ‘Call the Puffins’ series combines a charming animal story with fascinating facts about puffins and is a perfect chapter book series for children who have moved on from picture books but need shorter chapter book series to build up their reading confidence. (And it is equally popular with some of the older pupils as well!) Another delightful puffin rescue adventure!
