Winners

After a fantastic, fun hour at the best travelling fair ever, Sammy, Rory, Tom and Yasmina had spent almost all of their pocket money. So, Tom suggested that they could have a go at winning a prize at a stall where all tickets with a five or a zero were winners.

Naturally, the children were delighted to find a winning ticket, but the prizes on display were not quite right. What they really wanted was a prize they could easily share!

So, they ended up with a mysterious, lucky dip box. It was shiny purple and seemed to glitter in the funfair lights.

But it came with a whispered warning as the box squirmed impatiently - or did Sammy imagine it? What was in the box and were they really winners after all?

Children everywhere will love and be most intrigued by this magical tale of mischief and mayhem.
