For a time in the early Fifties Toby Twirl's challenge to Rupert The Bear for the children's adventure crown was almost successful. Alas, it was not to be and the twirly one's fame faded. The charming and wide-ranging stories were written by Sheila Hodgetts and the brilliant illustrations were by E. Jeffrey. Characters included The Clockwork Man, Pete The Penguin and the wonderful Professor Bison.
