The Tournesol Twins Baxter, David (University of New England, Australia)

Deep in the sleepy Dordogne countryside, rumours of a horrible fate spread through the field of the twin tournesols, Toby and Teresa. Through a chance encounter with a group of moles, the twins and eleven other tournesols are uprooted, and find themselves able to escape the destruction of their field by the 'man machines' they so fear. This is the tale of their epic journey through glorious sunflower and vineyard country; of their struggles and misfortunes; of their newfound friends. Their search for a tournesol haven takes them to the very edge of their capabilities - but will they find it?
