Once upon a time there was an enchanting fairytale about a prince who was looking for a real princess to be his bride. The only way to tell whether the many princesses who applied for the post were really royal, legend had it, was to see if they would be able to feel a tiny little pea through dozens of luxurious mattresses as they slept. Only the princess who emerged the next morning complaining of the extreme discomfort in which she had passed the night, could possibly be good enough to be the prince's bride . . . All well and enchanting, but has anyone stopped to think about how all this might have felt for the pea in question? No. So here, for the first time, straight from the pea, is the truth about this much-loved, oft-repeated fairytale.

With an action outfit for every occasion, Traction Man patrols the house. Whether he is saving toys (in latex space suit and Perspex helmet, teamed with Rocket Boots); searching the sink for the lost wreck of the sieve (in sub-aqua suit, fluorescent flippers and infra-red mask) or rescuing damsels in distress (in jungle pants, camouflage vest and a bandanna), Traction Man is never less than stylishly turned out and expertly accessorised. He is the last word in heroic fashion flair - until, that is, the day that he is presented with an all-in-one knitted green romper suit and matching bonnet by his owner's granny. Can Traction Man overcome the humiliation of his desperately dowdy new look and rediscover the action hero within or will the burden of the knitted green monstrosity be too great?

En dag när den lilla musen Hermelin kilar förbi Offley Streets anslagstavla lägger han märke till att den är full av meddelanden: Doktor Parkers läsglasögon saknas, Lady Cumley-Plumleys värdefulla halsband är spårlöst försvunnet och lilla Emma Splotts nalle Bobo verkar också var borta. Så många saker som är försvunna, någon måste nosa reda på dem! Hermelin får snart upp vittringen och lyckas i största hemlighet spåra flera av de förlorade ägodelarna. På maskinskrivna lappar lämnar han sedan ledtrådar var sakerna går att hitta. Människorna på Offley Street jublar och vill absolut fira sin hjälte Hermelin.
