COOT CLUB
Dick and Dorothea Callum came to the Norfolk Broads during the Easter holidays, eager to learn to sail. There, they run into the Coot Club Bird Protection Society. . . children who protect the local birds from thoughtless tourists. Trouble begins when a coot's nest is disturbed by a ship full of Hullabaloos. . . rude holiday boaters. The children try to convince the Hullabaloos to moor their noisy boat somewhere else. This fails, and frantic chases, calamitous boat collisions, daring rescues (including by a dog, William the pug), and rewards ensue!
