Meera, Gemma and Karl have always dreamed of owning a farm, and when Meera discovers an abandoned railway station, it seems like their dream might come true. Soon Silver Street Farm is up and running- but news of the city farm spreads like wildfire, and the council try to shut it down. Can the people of Lonchester come together to save it?
Some farms are up in the hills ... or down long, winding lanes ... but Silver Street Farm is different - it's right in the middle of a town! It's winter and the residents of Lonchester are struggling against the Big Freeze. School is closed, and Meera, Karl and Gemma are delighted. But there's no time to play. Many people in Lonchester find themselves stuck without food. However, with the help of a stranded Russian Ballet company, their sled dog, Boris, and some friendly police dogs, the Silver Street kids come to the rescue of all those in trouble!
Some farms are up in the hills... or down long, winding lanes... but Silver Street Farm is different - it's right in the middle of a town! After a baby-filled spring, Silver Street Farm is bursting at the seams! The lambs refuse to stay in their pen, the pigs are restless and the chickens have set up home in the office. There's not enough space for all the new animals, but Meera, Karl and Gemma can't bear to say goodbye to even a single guinea-pig. If only there was some way for them to buy the deserted scrapyard next door from the elusive Mike Steely... A chance encounter with a famous film director, Franco Lorenzo, could bring a surprising solution!
Some farms are up in the hills ... or down long, winding lanes ... but Silver Street Farm is different - it's right in the middle of a town! It's summer at Silver Street and all the animals are getting very hot and thirsty. The three children who run the farm - Meera, Gemma and Karl - decide to hold a competition to see who can come up with the best scheme for getting water to the farm. The solution surprises everybody!
It's springtime at Silver Street Farm, and all the animals are getting ready to have their babies. Flora, who usually runs the farm, has gone to look after her father's farm and the three children are on their own. At first things go smoothly but then one of the pigs breaks into Flora's caravan, the mother hen leaves the rooster, and even Buster the dog has a surprise in store...
All three stories in this collection deal with young children at a crisis in their lives. Maxy's mum is pregnant and has been taken into hospital with complications; Rose's family life has suddenly become difficult and different and she blames herself; and Lolly's mother has died and she and her grandparents are finding life very hard. Despite their difficulties, all three children eventually find strength and confidence through caring for animals on their farms.
