Jeannie and the Snouts

With a heavy heart, Jeannie arrives to stay at her grandparents' country cottage at the start of her summer holiday.

While her mother and father work in the city, she must endure the next few weeks away from her friends and, horror of horrors, with a new mobile phone that won't pick up a signal! Soon, however, her gloom is lifted by a chance encounter with a small, furry, feisty creature - a young Snout - who is to become her friend and fellow adventurer.

Jan Parker's book Jeannie and the Snouts describes Jeannie's unforgettable few weeks during which she shares the creatures' enchanting world.

The book captures the drama, tears and joy of the magical community as Jeannie helps lead their fight against the threatened destruction of their moorland home.
