In Conker, Nick goes looking for conkers in Jubilee Park, and finds a half-starved dog instead. Nick calls the dog Conker – but will he be able to save him? And in Colly’s Barn, Annie’s father wants to demolish the old barn and build a new one. But what will happen to all the birds that nest there? Read this book and find out!
