Jeremy Bone is a retired schoolmaster who lives alone in a large schoolhouse. He dislikes modern technology, so is appalled when he mistakenly receives a mobile phone through the mail. Roger Bennet is a boy of junior school age who has some learning difficulties. Each week he delivers an apple pie to Mr Bone in exchange for an hour's tuition. He activates the phone which has mystical powers and a great adventure begins. During the story's progress an interesting relationship is formed between the pair, as they endeavour to return the mobile phone to its rightful owner. However there are evil forces at work which lead to some exciting and hilarious situations. A pleasant combination of satire and pathos is delivered in poetic form in this ideal book for reading aloud either to children or by children. A story for young people regardless of age.
