Notes: Tom saw a lion strolling through the orchard with a string of sausages dangling from its mouth. He knows he saw the lion - if it was a real lion - but no-one will believe him.
No-one that is, except Clare, the cleverest girl in Tom's class. Why does Clare believe him? Because she knows something about Tom's story that no-one else does.
Together they come up with a daring plan to prove Tom is telling the truth. They decide to get some hard evidence - to capture the lion on camera - but somehow things don't turn out quite as they planned.

Notes: Three more stories in which the Tollins put on a play, face an invasion and discover the importance of hot tea and toast.
We return to Chorleywood, home of the Tollins - tiny creatures with wings who aren't fairies and are about as fragile as a house brick. In three thrilling stories, they will face the trials of armed invasion, radio technology and amateur dramatics. In "Romeo and Beryl," Sparkler discovers an old human book and decides to put on a play of a story that is filled with great love and even more shouting. At the same time, a new craze sweeps Chorleywood, as Dragonfly racing literally takes off. In "Radio," the Dark Tollins of Dorset invade in force, with a house cat leading the charge. Sparkler, Wing, and Grunion must find a way to save themselves, and possibly the cat as well. Finally, in "Bones," the Tollins leave Chorleywood on a mission of mercy. The homes of the Dark Tollins are about to be blown up by humans! We will discover the importance of hot tea and toast in such desperate times. As well as jam, obviously. Once again, it's Sparkler and his band of Tollins to the rescue!

Notes: Twin brother and sister Fred and Ellie find their lives turned upside down when they come into possession of a video game controller that actually controls people.
Fred and Ellie are twins. But not identical (because that's impossible for a boy and a girl). They do like all the same things, though. Especially video games. Which they are very good at. They aren't that good, however, at much else - like, for example, football, or dealing with the school bullies.
Then, they meet the Mystery Man, who sends them a video-game controller, which doesn't look like any other controller they've ever seen. And it doesn't control any of their usual games. When the twins find out what it does control, though, it seem like the answer to all their problems. And the key to all their wildest dreams. At least it seems like that…
