Pal overhears a conversation with the farmer, where they live, saying pigs on his farm are going to be made into sausages. He is devastated, but must save his friends. Luckily all the animals and small creatures know a secret! That the Isle of Wight, where the friends live, has a secret place. For this is where Harmony Haven can be found, and its guardian is the majestic and very powerful Oliver Gruffle who is our hero of these books.
