Description
The Town That Went South by Clive King is a humorous and original tale about a town that has mysteriously drifted away from England. Gargoyle, a curious cat, is the first to notice something amiss, as the Railway Station becomes awash with water and the surrounding countryside seems to be submerged in the Channel. As the people of Ramsly wake up, they discover that their town has come adrift and is floating gently across the Channel into France. But their journey has only just begun, as Ramsly continues to drift south, passing through Africa and the South Seas, before eventually reaching Australia and the coldest land in the world. This charming story follows the unexpected adventures of a small town as it travels across the globe, exploring new lands and encountering new challenges along the way.
