OverviewTwo new neighbours playing 'Three Little Pigs' discover that friends are what make a house a home. Clancy has just moved house. He is missing his old house terribly - the new house is much too big and much too lonely. How will he ever make it his home? As despair takes hold Clancy hears a small voice. Soon, Clancy, with the help of his new friend Millie, is building towers to the sky and trains to the street outside, and together they build the home that Clancy thought he had lost forever.
