Herbert

Young Herbert Dingyham lives a charmed life. In his world, good things happen every day! He is safe, protected, and, most of all, loved by his parents and four older brothers. Best of all, the Dingyham family lives in Mornington, where there's no such thing as violence, litter, or hate. It is a fairy-tale town, where Herbert is free to live his fairy-tale life.



But Herbert's happiness soon comes to an end when his four older brothers decide to leave home and see the world. He doesn't understand why they have to leave ... especially so soon! Suddenly, Herbert is lonely, and all he can do is cry to ease the pain-that is until he decides he's going to move out, too, and join his brothers in the big city. But for little Herbert, the big city is a big, scary place.



Follow Herbert as he goes on a dangerous adventure. Along the way, he braves the streets and finds his way through an unfamiliar-and unfriendly-world. He must search for food, shelter, and companionship, while ducking the clutches of the big bully, Big Gibson! It is a tale of bravery, as little Herbert learns how to stand up for himself and, with strength and smarts, find his way home.
