Synopsis of Homecoming
En esta conmovedora historia, el maestro narrador Michael Morpurgo regresa al "paisaje de sus recuerdos", relatando su infancia en el idílico pueblo de Bradwell cincuenta años antes. El pueblo está muy cerca del mar y está poblado por personajes extravagantes como las tres hermanas Stebbing, el coronel Burton de bigote blanco y Bennie, el matón del pueblo. Pero la heroína de esta historia es la serena Sra. Pettigrew, que vive en un vagón de tren en las marismas con sus perros, burro, abejas y gallinas. Pero la realidad industrial se entromete cuando se hacen planes para construir una central nuclear en el sitio de las marismas, poniendo en peligro el hogar de la Sra. Pettigrew y las gaviotas, búhos, cernícalos y miles de insectos y plantas que también pertenecen allí. Se produce una batalla en el pueblo a favor y en contra del peligro ambiental de la central eléctrica, y el joven Michael se ve envuelto en el triste destino de la Sra. Pettigrew y el paisaje de su infancia.
