Leo's Wild Adventures - Beetle Chaos

Suddenly as small as a beetle!
A wild adventure in the garden jungle

Leo and his inventor aunt Agnetha accidentally shrink to the size of beetles. Only the shrink ray can make them grow back to their normal size, but the neighbour’s cat has taken it away. So Leo and Aunt Agnetha set off on an exciting expedition through the garden jungle. Dragonflies suddenly appear like gliders, bumblebees like flying bears and beetles and ants as big as a sheepdog – help!

Will the two of them succeed in stealing the shrinking radiator from the neighbour’s cat?
