The Adventures of Jonny Plumb is the fantastical and funny story of a young orphan boy suddenly endowed with very special powers. Jonny’s life changes dramatically when he’s taken into foster care by the wealthy and extremely beautiful Lady Kathleen Hunter — and comes under the vigilant eye of Nanny Noo.

Jonny’s adventures begin when he finds the mysterious Golden Globe that shifts shapes and holds many secrets. This magical orb takes Jonny on all kinds of amazing and jaw-dropping adventures, high into the furthest regions of space and deep into an underwater world full of rowdy Sea Life — who bubble up from Jonny’s bathtub drain to join in silly songs. These include Wall Eyed Wally and his three baby octopuses Stench, Carcass, and Harpoon; five young dolphins, Oink, Jube, Faraway, Blue Sky One Eye, and Sloppy Botty; Porka the Orca, Legs the Crab, and many more.

Climb aboard with Jonny and his friends as they travel across the universe in the Silver Flying Arrow Space Ship, which can travel at twice — yes, twice — the speed of light! Read in amazement as Jonny Plumb’s adventures take him around the world to save Lady Hunter’s husband Sir Ranulf Hunter and his best friend Sir Harry Pinner, who have been taken hostage by the Mad Mullah Mud Monkeys of Drak Gob.

And if that’s not exciting enough, you’ll be even more flabbergasted at Jonny’s ongoing battle to save the Golden Globe from the ever present, wickedly savage, and cunningly cruel Rabbcat. Rabbcat can shape-shift into the world’s most evil and terrifying creature known as The Gnud Repeek, a monster who has been trying to steal what he wrongly believes is rightfully his for centuries — yes, the Golden Globe — with all its hidden secrets!

So join Jonny Plumb and all his friends in their adventures, swimming, singing, parping, and splashing below the water in Jonny’s bath. Then speed faster than light across the universe and travel into deepest space in the Silver Flying Arrow Space Ship, where Jonny answers an SOS from the planet Pashoo, twenty eight million light years from Earth in the Sombrero Galaxy. Join in the journey with Jonny’s dog companions, the fearsome Legend and Legion, the two largest Rottweilers in the world…
