When Cuthbert's mother brings home not one baby brother, but FOUR baby sisters, no one seems to have any time for Cuthbert. So Cuthbert wishes for someone to play with, someone BIG and BAD. And the three pirates who answer his call are exactly what Cuthbert had wished for? and they've brought their cannon!

With lots of humour and a sense of fun Pamela Allen brings us a captivating story which explores just what happens when four new siblings are introduced into a world where you were once the centre of attention.
