This book tells the story of the anxiety experienced by Pete and his jazz band figures, Ping a Japanese Japanese doll, Chester the toy clown and Snowy – a big, fluffy white bear at possibly being separated when Millicent and her family who own them are preparing to move house. The two boxes that appear in the pictures, or are referred to in the text represent those items going with the family and those being given away. Each toy expresses their fear of being separated from their friends who come alive to play each night while the family sleeps.
