Six-year-old Kate loves helping around the house, it makes her feel very grown up. But when she shakes out the kitchen mat on the first day of the school holidays, she accidentally launches a tiny stowaway straight into her hair. Little Flea soon makes himself at home in Kate's ear, chatting away, asking cheeky questions and occasionally getting her into trouble.

At first Kate just wants him gone. Yet as school starts and friendships are tested, Little Flea proves surprisingly useful, if a little mischievous! Warm, funny and gently adventurous, The Girl with a Flea in Her Ear is a playful early chapter book about friendship, conscience and learning when to do the right thing.
