Titch and Tup's reluctance to be in any children's stories is delivered loud and clear. They are independent, confrontational and rebellious. And Tup is particularly strong-willed. However, when they need help from the readers in dealing with the Triple Troubles, they finally swallow their pride and ask. Saying thank you is a bit of a challenge for the pair, but they get there in the end! An entertaining and engaging story for children, teaching them that saying thank you is important!
