Holly wishes she had a skateboard, but her parents can't afford to buy her one. Her spoilt cousin Richard has a super-duper, expensive skateboard and on Holly's seventh birthday he brings it round to show off. But Richard doesn't know about old Mr Windrush from next door - he has a special surprise to give Holly's birthday a fantastic lift! Young readers will find much to enjoy and think about in this stirring cautionary tale.
