A Race Against Time
Hurrying back towards Shek-O after a day at one of Hong Kong’s best beaches, Big Wave Bay, four children are struggling with tiredness and their old bicycles. On the deserted road, a car nearly crashes into them but misses and leaves one of them lying in a ditch, with an ankle sore enough to stop her riding any further. There are no other cars or no taxis in sight, so someone has the idea to seek help from one of the big houses sitting high above the road – one of the houses presumably belonging to one of Hong Kong’s super rich persons. Yet, there’s a strange welcome and it becomes a race against time to help prevent a major incident
Mice Are Nice
When Jenny and Ronald agree to look after their friend's two white mice when he goes on holiday, they think it's best not to tell their mother. All is well until mother returns home with a mysterious cardboard box - containing her workmate's cat and which she's agreed to look after for a while. And when the mice go missing, the children have to tell their parents the whole story - and there's only one suspect... the smiling, black cat. A lovely story of adventure and intrigue - after all, 'Mice Are Nice', aren't they?
