"An adorable tale of friendship and daring to be yourself." Waterstones

It’s another busy day at the ant hill. The farmer ants are collecting food, the worker ants are building tunnels and the soldier ants are guarding the queen. But for Andy, it’s a very special day: it's his birthday! Word spreads for his "small gathering" and, in no time at all, thousands of ants arrive to bust their best moves and tuck into dips. But as the party gets into full swing an unwanted guest arrives... The ants must work together to save the day (and the dips!) in this charming, original comedy picture book that will empower even the shyest of us all to shine and make a difference.
