When Morris Wainwright paints the shed bright blue and hangs fairy lights across the garden, Rusty Nail and her friends become convinced that somebody very important is coming to visit. Could it be royalty? A millionaire? Or perhaps a famous gardener from the Chelsea Flower Show? But when the guests finally arrive, the garden party quickly turns into complete chaos! Sandwiches fly through the air, children tumble into the pond, gnomes lose their heads, and poor Morris tries desperately to stay polite while his garden is destroyed before his eyes. Then, in the middle of all the confusion, something unexpected comes crashing through the shed window, a frightened little blue Wellington boot named Welligig Blue. Can Rusty, Sprocket, Springaling, Young Pinion and the others help their new friend find a safe place to belong before the terrible party guests come looking for her? A wonderfully funny and heart-warming adventure filled with garden disasters, flying wellies, fairy cakes, and the beginning of a very special friendship.
