From the author of the best-selling Babe: The Gallant Pig, comes a rip-roaring, riotous tale. Young Tod Golightly tries to follow family tradition as a 'toby man,' 18th century English slang for a ruffian who relieves unwary travelers of their belongings. His first attempts are fruitless, and it takes the advice of a practical donkey named Matilda, and her lively animal cohorts, to help him on his way. But his success doesn't last long, as Tod soon finds himself in hot water, and it's up to the kind Parson Appletree to help him out and set him straight.
