Description: |
When two children climb over the garden wall of the big house, they embark on a voyage of discovery. For this uncharted territory reveals a topiary ship. It isn't long before the shipowner comes across the stowaways, but their sense of adventure is destined to see them all through the eye of the storm. |
Synopsis: |
Two children find the Green Ship when they climb over the wall into what is more like a forest than a garden. The ship has bushes for bows and stern and its funnels are trees; a small garden shed on an ancient stump is the wheel house and in command of the ship is the owner of the garden, old Mrs Tredegar. Throughout the summer she and the Bosun and the two children sail the Seven Seas visiting exotic faraway places and having wonderful adventures. |
