Listen to the Giddlywunkles Podcast
Welcome to the first in the series of stories on the Giddlywunkles Podcast.
“Once upon a time, around half past cockadoodle-doo, a little girl woke up… in a hole… in a hedge.
It was not just any hole in any hedge, but a Hocus Pocus Hole in the Hedge that she called home.”
The Giddlywunkles series of stories follow sister and brother, Callie and Buckle, and their adventures with a little girl who lives in a hole in a hedge of the bottom of their wild garden.
It is no ordinary hole in just some hedge, though.
It is a Hocus Pocus Hole in the Hedge.
The hedge in question is the mystical hawthorn and the hole is a gateway between this world and, well, the Other world. You might call it the world of a child’s imagination but, then again, you might not be a Giddlywunkle or may have forgotten what it was like to be a Giddlywunkle.
The Giddlywunkles’s new friend is no ordinary girl either, and not only because she lives in a hedge. She carries with her a spangly bag, in which she gathers the stories of the weird and wonderful characters they meet. She even plucks interesting words from their mouths when they speak.
You will find out more about the gang soon but, first, meet The Giddlywunkles on the Giddlwywunkles Podcast.
