Louis and Bobo are moving house, everything is changing and Louis isn't happy. He doesn't want to leave his school, his mum and dad are cross and busy, and the house is getting emptier by the minute. What will the new house be like? What if Louis never makes new friends? But as Louis and Bobo explore their new garden, they meet their new neighbour Jackie and her tortoise Priscilla. Jackie is full of great ideas for having fun - what about a tortoise and dog race? Perhaps moving house won't be so bad after all!
