Fiz is not pleased at the prospect of her pesky little cousin Archie coming to play. In fact she"s almost grumpy and she"s very stubbornly refusing to come down from a tree. But, Fiz can"t avoid him for long and despite the best efforts of her friends Ruby and Lulu, he can"t be made to behave. Meanwhile, Maisie is having bothersome brother problems of her own. Eventually, the girls overcome the trials of playing with the boisterous boy, and Archie becomes less of an irritation when the sparky quartet cleverly trick him into participating in their games and being good. The four grumpy little girls are brimming with imagination and cunning and this very funny story shows them at their sophisticated best as the beastly younger child brings out their bossy instincts. The series also features The Grumpy Little Girls and the Princess Party, The Grumpy Little Girls and the Wobbly Sleepover and The Grumpy Little Girls and the Bouncy Ferret. Age 5-8 --Rachel Ediss
