It's a sunny afternoon on Mossy Bottom Farm, and competition between the sheep and the pigs is almost as hot as the weather as they play a new game called Piggy Stomp. May the best tail win!
Fans of CBBC's Shaun the Sheep will adore the 4th novel in the Tales from Mossy Bottom Farm series, which is based on characters from the top-rated TV show by Aardman (the creators of Wallace and Gromit).
There are black-and-white illustrations throughout, plus comic strips and activity pages.

Martin Howard writes absurdly funny books for children. His last was a Sunday Times Book of the Week and he has been compared to Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams and the Monty Pythons. Mallory Vayle and the Curse of Maggoty Skull is his favourite so far.
