The Peachey family is in crisis. No one cooks dinner, no one picks
up the dirty washing and thekids are always late for school. All
because Mum has resigned from being Mum and taken up yogainstead.
She's in the tree pose; everyone else is in the doghouse. Except
McTavish, a rescue dog witha difference, on a mission to sort his
new family out...Filled to the brim with Meg's wry humour and
beautiful prose, this is a story for the young and the young at
heart.
It's summer and the Peachey family is in crisis - again. Youngest
child Betty Peachey is trying to persuade the family to go to the
Faraway Campsite of Ma Peachey's idyllic dreams. But most of the
Peacheys are still resisting. Pa Peachey is convinced that terrible
dangers lurk in the `wild', Ollie only cares about whether there's
a `disco', and Ava has her nose deep in philosophy books...But
marvellous McTavish, always one step ahead of the Peacheys, quietly
works out a way to get the family enjoying their holiday, together.

The Peachey family enjoy fine meals each night now that everyone
takes turns cooking. Everyone, that is, except grumbling Pa Peachey
- until some unsatisfactory bread pushes him to try baking.
Convinced that he has found his true calling, Pa sets his sights on
winning the town Bake Off. Unfortunately, his great ideas far
surpass his skills, and soon Pa's ambitions are crumbling under the
weight of 3,784 pieces of gingerbread ... McTavish smells disaster
in the making, and it looks like he's going to have to save the day
- again.
