Crispin Barleycorn is an adventurous young mouse. When he hears about the wicked deeds of Farmer Jones he decides to go into action. First, the farmer set traps to capture the little creatures, then he thought it was fun to shoot them - and to put down poisoned bait. What is more, he has chopped down all the trees so they have nowhere to hide from the Hawk and the Fox and the Cat, and now he is prowling the land in huge machines, destroying the hedgerows. Something has to be done! With his friend Turbo Dragonfly and squadrons of Honey-Bees, he plans revenge on Farmer Jones to save the little creatures and teach him a lesson. A delightfully illustrated verse tale of animal ingenuity.
