Franzi liebt es, Geschichten zu erfinden! Seit sie den Ameisenhaufen im Garten entdeckt hat, handeln ihre Geschichten von Amely, der fliegende Ameisenprinzessin, Erbse, dem gutmütigen Läusehirten und nun auch von Amadeus, der coolen Muskelameise. Seltsam ist nur, dass die Geschichten Wirklichkeit werden und so den Alltag der ganzen Familie auf den Kopf stellen. Der Hund hat Läuse!! Als Mama mitten in der Nacht davon erfährt, springt sie kreischend aus dem Bett und schickt den Hund in den Garten. Die kleine Greta kann jetzt nicht mehr einschlafen. Da erzählt Franzi von Erbse, dem flötespielenden Läusehirten. Durch das offene Fenster hört man plötzlich eine leise Melodie. Ob das Erbse mit seiner Flöte ist? Eine lustige und spannende Geschichte um die Wirklichkeit eines Kindes, die Lebenswelt der Ameisen und über die Macht der Fantasie.
