Unbeknownst to anyone, Eddie Albert can speak to animals – including his pet dog Butch, his hamster and his two pet goldfish (who claim they were once pirates). What Eddie can’t do is fit in . . . until he is sent to stay with his eccentric aunt in Amsterdam. But then Eddie spots a captive orangutan being taken along the river. So begins a hilarious adventure as Eddie, his new friend Flo, Aunt Budge and a whole gang of amazing animals take on the most dastardly villain Amsterdam has ever seen, in a desperate race to save one of their own . . . An entertaining read for the more able readers in this category.
