Christophe Thomas héberge sous son lit cinq petits bonshommes hauts comme trois pommes. Bien qu'ils soient drôles, généreux et d'une grande gentillesse, il les a surnommés les "tordus" puisqu'ils sont également les champions des mauvais coups. Ici, en accompagnant Christophe au parc, nichés dans les poches de son sac à dos, les minuscules bonshommes se remémorent avec tristesse un dur moment de leur passé. En effet, le trou qui les hébergeait alors avait été comblé, ensevelissant toute une population de tordus dont ils n'ont plus de nouvelles. Le garçon espère les aider à les retrouver. De joyeuses illustrations stylisées donnent vie à ces attachants petits personnages peuplant un récit fantaisiste de lecture facile, abondamment dialogué. [SDM].
