Tom and Emily live with wicked Aunty Bess, the worst aunt in the world. They don't have proper beds. The food is so bad, they like their school dinners. And they even have to cut her extra long toenails! Just as well Emily's good at swops! She swops their gran for a donkey - but can she swop their horrid home for a happy ending? This is a charming and funny story.
