An adventure series for children aged 8-12yrs, about children who live in the same neighbourhood and have adventures together. Each child has a gardening project they are responsible for, as well as experiencing a life challenge which other people in the neighbourhood help them overcome. Letitia wins cross-country races for her school. Her two best friends, Emma and Brian, also compete in the competitions. When a girl in a wheelchair wants to be Letitia’s friend, Letitia cannot see what they have in common. An accident forces Letitia to look at things differently, especially when the girls get attacked by bullies. Letitia’s gardening project helps give her confidence until a disaster occurs. Will Tommy and his friends be able to stop the bullies from harassing the girls again?
