Whistle three times, turn it round and it's steak-and-kidney if that's what you fancy, or hot jam rolls, or delicious apple dumpling. Its manners are appalling, but it tastes so good! And it loves, just loves, to be eaten: Eat away, chew away, munch and bolt and guzzle, Never leave the table till your full up to the muzzle it rudely urges the Noble Order of Puddin 97 Owners, and of course the three members are delighted to oblige. But a secret like a magic pudding is hard to keep, and envious eyes of professional puddin 97thieves are on the brave trio and their prize. The puddin 97thieves are cunning and master of disguise, but no match in the end for the even greater ingenuity of righteous puddin 97owners. Ages 8+
