Things are always happening to my Uncle Mungo. He likes to spend his time paddling in the sea, cooking sausages and painting starfish. But sometimes the most unexpected things happen. Like the time a present from Mungo’s jolly swag-woman friend in Australia went missing and he was thrown into a series of weird and wonderful adventures involving a pirate postman, a grumpy lighthouse keeper and a Duchess with a prize pig. More trouble loomed when he was challenged to a duel to find out who is the world’s greater painter of wallabies. With lots of illustrations by the author. Look out for more Uncle Mungo books!
