Spring had come again to Faraway, and the men and women and children of the village, as they went about their business, were singing this song that the merry young Squire had written to welcome the spring.

Here is the story of the adventures of five charming children and a naughty little Jane, accompanied by their wonderful dogs and a wicked donkey Matilda, as they meet some smugglers, free traders and a spy who bewitches the countryside with marvelous music.
