OUR STORE IS CLOSED ON ANZAC DAY: THURSDAY 25 APRIL
Julian Gough is a novelist, playwright, poet, musician and script-writer, and this is his first series for children. He was born in London, grew up in Ireland and now lives in Berlin. Jim Field has illustrated a wide range of projects including CATS AHOY! (winner of the Roald Dahl funny prize), MAGIC INK, and Kes Gray's OI FROG! and HOW MANY LEGS? He lives in Paris.
These 100-page, fully illustrated stories will be as popular with bedtime-story-reading grown-ups as they are with newly confident readers. We love the funny illustrations, the cheeky humour and the underlying messages about friendship and life. * The School Run * Julian Gough's text is quirky and lively with a distinctive style, and Jim Field's illustrations are a joy * Awfully Big Reviews * A healthy dose of quirky humour * Irish Times * With wonderful landscapes and characterisation by Jim Field, this book is highly recommended and will still delight after many readings * Inis * A delight, with super illustrations and a lovely story about friendship * Independent on Sunday * Has a cheeky charm that will thrill younger readers * The Guardian * A laugh-out-loud celebration of friendship, forest life...and poo * Metro * What a treat this little book is! Not only does it have a funny and warm story that is full of heart, it is also gorgeously presented with spot-colour illustrations by Jim Field...Lots of fun, highly recommended. -- Anna Flinn * Reading Zone * A great book that will become a classic * London Mums Magazine * It's beautifully illustrated and is a super story, with cheeky one-liners, that is ideal to share on cold winter evenings * Manchester Evening News * This is a superb book and the real joy to me is in the conversations (sometimes quite philosophical) between Rabbit and Bear. * Parents In Touch * It's an exhilarating, very quietly educational, and - most of all - riotously funny read. * Waterstones, Leilah Skelton * A charming, wonderful and eccentric story * Sschambe Blog * A laugh out loud story with just a hint of poo. * Charlie Byrne's Bookshop * Sure to become a firm favourite * The Bookbag * A perfect animal double-act enchants. -- Alex O'Connell * The Times * Rabbit's Bad Habits should become an instant modern classic. Stands shoulder to shoulder with Pooh and Toad. Cheeky, delightful and hilarious. * Eoin Colfer *
