Carrie and Nick are billeted in Wales with old Mr Evans, who is so mean and cold, and his timid mouse of a sister, Lou, who suddenly starts having secrets. Their friend Albert is luckier, living in Druid's Bottom with warm-hearted Hepzibah Green and the strange Mister Johnny, who can talk to animals but not to human beings. Carrie and Nick visit him there whenever they can for Hepzibah makes life exciting and enticing with her stories and delicious cooking. Gradually they begin to feel more at ease in their war-time home, but then, in trying to heal the rift between Mr Evans and his estranged sister, and save Druid's Bottom, Carrie does a terrible thing which is to haunt her for years to come. Carrie revisits Wales as an adult and tells the story to her own children.

      Willy Wonka ist -daran gibt es gar keinen Zweifel! - der weltbeste Süßigkeiten-Erfinder. Aber seinen Flugkünsten mögen Charlie und seine Familie nicht so ganz trauen - besonders, da es sich bei dem Raumschiff um einen gläsernen Fahrstuhl handelt, der beim Aufstieg in die Weiten des Weltraums leider außer Kontrolle gerät. Doch Willy Wonka wäre nicht Willy Wonka, wenn er nicht immer einen Ausweg wüßte - oder etwa nicht?
