George is looking for a job in order to raise money for a new bike so when he sees a help wanted ad for Wormestall Farm he goes for it. Before long he''s embroiled in a madcap adventure involving creatures both (supposedly) extinct and (previously thought to be) mythological a new friend (a girl!) and a maniacal taxidermist who wants the animals of Wormestall Farm in her own private collection . . . stuffed of course.
