Trivia[]
- The three men going up the hill that Pat draws in Tom's book on the page of number 3 are actually himself with Ted Glen and Peter Fogg. These were changed to three different people in the animated version.
- The three naughty hens that tried to steal Pat's sandwiches to which Pat writes on the number 3 page is a reference to the lunch on the hill scene of the episode Postman Pat and the Magpie Hen.
- In the audiobook, Katie and Tom chant "We'll say a prayer and sing some hymns / Then it's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 with the Reverend Timms" before being told to stop.
