When Catrin finds a secret box in Bossman's scrapyard, she suspects someone must have hidden it deliberately. When Sunita's grandmother in Nairobi receives a mysterious letter from a girl in Wales, Sunita has to make a confession. Shaped partly like a man, partly like an elephant, what is the mysterious figurine which brings the two girls together? A gentle tale of contrasting cultures which draws upon Mary's experiences both in Kenya and in Wales. The author is well-known for her work with children and has featured in several educational videos. She devised the Channel 4 TV series on storytelling, "By Word of Mouth", (1990) and her radio programme on storytelling for BBC Wales Education was broadcast in 1999. The storyteller's ability to capture and captivate her audience comes to the fore in this novel.
