Livy can't remember her first visit to her grandmother's house in Australia, but she does seem to recall a 'wrong chicken' and bumping down the stairs.

She definitely doesn't remember the strange little creature she finds in the wardrobe. His name is Bob and he doesn't know what he's doing there, but he's been waiting for Livy to come back for more than five years. That's a very long time to sit in the dark.

Clue by clue, Livy and Bob unravel the mystery of where Bob comes from and what Livy has forgotten in this magical story about friendship and loyalty and the power of imagination.

The cutest creature fic to ever be set in Australia, I’m telling you!
Bob is the sweetest little creature who has been lost at Grandma’s house for a whole 5 years! Livy doesn’t remember him but boy-o-boy does he remember her! Help Livy find out where Bob belongs, and maybe something incredible will happen when you do!

Family, friendship and creative thinking flourish in this fable-like tale!

Ages 6-10
