Join Pigin on an unexpected trip - all the way to London!

Pigin is enjoying a wonderful summer party at the fairies' place behind Howth Castle when he holds one balloon too many, and up into the air he goes!

Luckily, the Green Bird is flying overhead and the captain manages to pull Pigin in the cockpit window. And so his unexpected adventure begins ...

Pigin enjoys visiting the sights in London: a trip to Buckingham Palace, a ride on the River Thames and even a go around the London Eye. What a wonderful time he has! But when he sees Nanakit waiting for him at Dublin airport he realises there's no place like home.
