It's Winnie's birthday and she's celebrating in style with a garden party. She uses all sorts of magic to invite the guests and transform her garden into the perfect party venue. There are presents to unwrap and games to play but then things start to go wrong when Winnie toots on the magic trumpet that cousin Cuthbert has given her. All her guests disappear! Winnie's party is suddenly in danger of being a rather bothersome occasion but, true to form, Winnie soon has everything back under control and she ends the party with a stunning edible surprise for all her guests to enjoy. This story is full of noisy antics: a whirring printer, a rattling cage, a deflating bouncy castle, musical broomsticks, a tooting trumpet and the shouts and laughter of party guests are just some of the wonderful additions to the narration of Happy Birthday, Winnie! on the accompanying audio CD. |
