Meet Trude, a lovable little fly with a big heart and a completely bottomless stomach. When the irresistible scent of a freshly baked birthday cake lures her into a cozy kitchen, Trude eats until she is completely round. But her sweet feast is cut short by Flecki the cat! In a frantic escape, Trude slips down the kitchen sink drain—and plunges headfirst into the adventure of a lifetime.

When she finally pops back out into the daylight, she isn't in her cozy kitchen anymore. She has been swept to the other side of the world!

What follows is a whirlwind, accidental tour of the globe. From dodging haughty seagulls in Athens to getting lost in the sweet treats of Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar, Trude’s rumbling belly keeps leading her on the wildest detours. She hitches a ride on a red double-decker bus in London, flies across the massive Atlantic Ocean, and lands right in front of the Statue of Liberty in New York!

Will Trude ever find her way back?

Just when she finally makes it to a major railway station near her home, she meets Frida, a frantic mouse looking for her missing husband. Trude faces a tough choice: board her train home, or stay behind to help a friend in need?

Join Trude and her unlikely crew of animal friends on a hilarious, heartwarming journey about brave choices, global adventures, and the true meaning of home.

Perfect for young adventurers, curious minds, and anyone who knows that the best stories usually start with a little snack.

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
