The village is getting ready to celebrate Aunti May's 100th birthday. Tom's sister Julie says she will make a card and he can sign it. Old Dick, the farmhand, would like to make a card too because Auntie May has been like a mother to him. The problem is he can not write. So he enlists Tom's help to make the biggest birthday card in the world - cutting into the grass of a field. Alison Morgan's novel "Leaving home" was shortlisted for "The Guardian" Award and "Christabel" was shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal. Her other titles include "Staples for Amos" and "Smudge'. Carolyn Dinan has previously illustrated the award-winning "The Turbulent Term of Tyke Tiler", "But Martin" (runner-up for the Children's Book Award), "The Monster Tea Party" and "Alfred Mouse".
