Galooshty - a billowing wind, 'like someone's shaking out a wet sheet in the sky.'When charlie climbs into his tree house, he also climbs into the tree's mind. Charlie begins a project to save his own garden, not knowing that he will soon be called to much greater things.

Which way will Ash cast his vote?''Wonderfulcontemporary as tomorrow's newspaper.'' Tim Smit (CEO Eden Project)''This is a story for all human children, even if they consider themselves grown-ups.

Ian Roderick (Director, Schumachher institute). At first he is full of wonder and admiration but when his friend, the rat, tries to persuade him that humans are vermin, Ash begins to have doubts.
