The tiny Tindims are like the Borrowers-on-Sea, who turn our everyday rubbish into treasure. Mother-and-daughter duo, prizewinning Sally Gardner and Lydia Corry, create a fun world of characters and adventures in their empowering new series for 5-8 year olds inspiring conservation and inventive ways to recycle.
On the Tindims’ island home, Bottle Mountain is growing terrifyingly tall with rubbish. So tall that one night it breaks away. Across the ocean, a boy discovers Bottle Mountain bobbing by the seashore. For the first time ever the Tindims are discovered and get to meet the Long Legs and Little Legs. Can the Tindims and the humans help each other to save the planet?
Printed in dyslexia-friendly font with pictures on every page and perfect for the reluctant reader, the Tindims show keen young ecologists how to help protect our planet for the future.

I didn’t really enjoy this book as much as others in the reading challenge. The characters were Sally , Captain Spoons, Broom, little long legs and some baby turtles. There was also a big little long legs

There were three Tindims called Captain Spoons, Broom and Pinch. Captain Spoons and Broom fell off with Bottle Mountain and were stranded on an island. The Long Leg family helped them to get back by fixing their cable car that got transformed into a boat. My favourite part was when they made friends with the Long Leg family.
