Enchanted by the theatre, Dan and Una decide to recreate their own version of A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Using his fairy magic, Puck then conjures up the past to entertain the two amazed children – a Roman centurion, a Renaissance artisan and a bygone village all appear before their very eyes.

Puck of Pook's Hill is an innocent and charming tale to delight readers of all ages.
