    About this ebook

    A community of tiny gnomes make their living beneath the roots of a huge old oak tree growing near a large swamp. Pixies, living in the high branches, help transport goods back and forth. The Fudgeknuckle family struggles to make ends meet while the father is away. Follow the lives of Sweetblossom, mother of six; Sweetflower, the oldest daughter; Oglethorp, the oldest son; and the rest of the Fudgeknuckle children and how they react when a swarm of wasps threatens the tiny town. Meet Mortimer Mole and Fred the Frog; watch romance bloom at the spring festival. See yourself smile when a surprise ending creates happiness for all.
