Flooded is the funny and beautifully illustrated tale of animals who live in a city that is ever so slowly flooding.
The flood comes gradually at first.
All the animals ignore the obvious and go about their busy lives, disjointed from one another and preoccupied by their own problems.
Eventually, the flood water reaches a height that they can no longer ignore and they have to work together to save their city.
All the animals join together in a line and pull out the plug that is drowning the city.
This is an exceptionally illustrated story that teaches a message not to let problems fester and with a little team work and community spirit, no problem is insurmountable.

When they realise it’s no monster but a dog in distress, they bring it back to the Dream Dogs grooming parlour and discover what’s under all that mud…
…a beautiful golden retriever!
They name her Nugget and although Bella puts up missing dog posters, no one claims her. To their surprise and delight Nugget gives birth to a litter of puppies and Bella takes charge of finding homes for all of them.
