It's Dad's birthday, and No.21 Penny Lane is buzzing with excitement. The house is filled with decorations, and a barbeque is being prepared. Emma and Nathan's cousins, Will and Rosie, have come to help.

Aghast! Mum has forgotten to collect the cake from the bakery, and Nathan seizes the opportunity to visit the Toy Shop.

In this exciting adventure, the cousins travel on bales of straw to MacBride's farm, where Farmer MacBride is in hospital with a broken leg, and expected home

tomorrow. With no feed for the animals and the chores not done, Mrs. MacBride is at her wits' ends.
