The Tree Man Damian Cormack

Stay with Granny while Mum sorts out her job? Alright, say Daniel and his sister Izzy. They already miss their father, a soldier who has gone AWOL or absent without leave. So it is a surprise when the Tree Man whisks them off to Lepithon where the Malacots, a tribe of monkeys, clash with the boars. Izzy corrals some horses yet worries about a foal that has also gone AWOL.
