Mr Badger And the Big Surprise (2010)
“Not forgetting her 205 friends and their parents.
Sylvia’s presents had been loaded into a Boubles Grand Hotel delivery van and were already on their way to Sylvia’s home.
In the ballroom, Mr Badger swung into action. There was a big mess to be tidied up, not that there was much food or drink left. In fact, looking around, Mr Badger realised there was none.
Every last glass of pink lemonade had been drunk. And every one of those delicious 410 watercress sandwiches, 820 party pies, 512 butterfly... cakes, seven sponge cakes, eight tubs of assorted ice-cream, five tubs of mousse, huge bowls of strawberry jelly with raspberries and cream, and layered sponge fingers had been eaten by Sylvia, her hungry little friends and their parents.
There was certainly not one pineapple tartlet to be seen. Sylvia had hidden these away amongst her pile of presents right at the beginning of the party.
What’s more, every last piece of birthday cake had been eaten. All gone without a trace.
Mr Badger and Miss Pims organised the clean-up as usual.MoreLess
