We Didn't Mean To, Honest

By: Robert Swindells

Narrated by: Andy Crane

“But what can we do?” cried Shaz. “I mean, how can four kids and a dog stop that miserable old so-and-so?” Mickey smiled, “We're The Outfit. There's nothing we can't do if we put our minds to it...”

Froglet Pond is under attack, and The Outfit are furious. It's not just them that will suffer if the pond's filled in - what about all the wildlife that lives there? It's up to The Outfit to stop the plans and save the pond - by fair means or foul....

Critic reviews

"This faithful, fearless, full-of-fun Outfit (four children and Radar, a dog who thinks he's a person) have a new cause--thwarting nasty farmer Reuben Kilchaffinch's plan to fill in Froglet Pond (the breeding site of the endangered great crested newt). He also plans to tear down the historic Kilchaffinch barn to build a house for his equally nasty son, Kenneth, and his son's fiancŽe, Prunella. No one does a better job of reading a fast-paced, funny children's book than Andy Crane, a regular from BBC children's programming. The patter of the kids and their confrontations with the mean-spirited Kilchaffinches are delivered in a natural, right-on style. The whole family will cheer the Outfit's victory and applaud Andy Crane's reading of this fun-filled adventure story." (AudioFile)
