Delightful and witty, this is a simple story of mistaken identity!

Peter and Paul are the best of friends, but when Peter gets lost in a terrible storm he can’t find Paul anywhere. With the help of a big blue whale Puffin Peter set off to find him. They find all kinds of birds that match Peter's description but none of them are quite like Paul.

Original artwork from award-winner Petr Horacek uses stunning techniques including collage.
