Description

Steven is sent out for groceries on to the mean street of the city with only a shopping basket for protection. There are several shady characters about who are offering to lighten the load of the basket by helping themselves to his provisions!

Steven's having none of it and with the help of some of the city's less attractive sights, he outsmarts all of them and makes it home in time for tea. The pictures tell as much of the story as the text, bringing humour and observations to life.

A humorous tale of one boy's bravery and resourcefulness, illustrated with the author's signature style, making it a charming read for children and adults alike.
