  Old Mother Hen and the baby chicks have been frightened by something. What has got them so upset? Pup and Hound decide to investigate and they soon discover that a strange white ghostlike object is making its way across the yard. See, there it is by the swing. The dogs follow the frightening thing which heads for the shadowy old shed. Did the thing go into the shed?

  No there is just an owl in the shed and the white ghost thing is up in the tree. Now it is off again with the dogs in hot pursuit for it would appear that the thing is heading for their house. Surely it does not mean to take up residence there? What are they going to do?

  In this highly entertaining little story Pup and Hound have to face a very frightening adversary and Hound shows his young companion just how a brave dog should behave. Young readers will not only have a grand time reading the rhyming text and looking at the amusing illustrations, but they will also have a good giggle at the dogs’ mistake
