Pip and Posy are spending the afternoon outside, but Pip wants to do some quiet gardening and Posy wants to have fun playing noisy games. When Posy’s racket frightens Pip’s new snail friend back into its shell, Pip gets mad at her . . . Oh dear! But then a bird tries to take Pip's snail, and it turns out Posy’s loud voice can be quite useful after all! A heartwarming, relatable story about valuing one another’s differences.
