Flight of the Cloud Sailor (Forest Children)

All is not well in the treetop village of Boughville... When the PS Fernald drifts mysteriously into port, half-destroyed and apparently abandoned, it is down to Greg (a not-so-ordinary young boy) and his bizarre friends to discover the fate of Captain Freshwater and his crew. Excitement, adventure and colourful characters (such as Tidus Tiddywoffin, the lawyer who never uses one word when half a dozen will suffice), abound in this, the second of Mark Hazell's enchanting and humorous tales about Greg and the imaginative fantasy world he lives in.
