Summary from Egmont
It's the night of the Small Hall Grand Ball and everyone's getting ready. All except for Paul and Sally Small, who are too little to enjoy the fun.
But when Paul’s friend, Mr Puddles, goes missing the only thing to do
is sneak into the party in search of his beloved bear . . .
Nayuleska's thoughts
Even the book is rather large! The siblings are a lovable duo who always have cute expressions on their faces I wanted to pick up the fluffy looking dog, and slide down the staircase with them. My favourite part is inside the front and back cover, both which have gates leading to the house. At the front of the book the gates are open and the dog is walking through them. At the back of the book the gates are closed with the dog behind them, and the children make an appearance on top of the gate posts waving goodbye. I adore books which include the covers as part of the sory, making this a 10/10 read.
