Dónall Dána is a proper little devil. He is a boy who loves to play tricks. He throws food around, snatches things, pushes, squeezes and pins.
Dónall tries to trick his little brother Perfect Peter. But could Dónall be cursed by the mummy? Or what is the difference between ‘Mommy’ and ‘Mummy’ anyway?
