The village is getting ready to celebrate Auntie May's 100th birthday. Old Dick, the farmhand, wants to make Auntie May a special card because she has been like a mother to him. The problem is that he can't write, so he enlists Tom's help to make the biggest card in the world, cut into the grass of a field. Alison Morgan is also the author of "Leaving Home" which was runner-up for "The Guardian" award and "Christabel", one of her stories for younger readers, was shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal.
