The title tells about what kind of fun and ziddy kid Terdellaline is. She means well in everything she does, but because of her free-spirited, energetic, inquisitive little mind, she sometimes gets herself into a little trouble with her parents and some of the grown-ups around the neighborhood. The grown-ups even have a golden rule when talking with Terdellaline: Talk small and simple and do not give Terdellaline an inch or she will take a yard. This type of free-spirited, energetic way of hers is the reason she finds herself lost in the forest. This story is filled with humor, cliches and educational values written in a unique style meant to be read by parents, grandparents and all alike to the young minds of our leaders of tomorrow.
