Reviews

  • "An amusing tale"

    TES

  • "The sheer daftness of the ideas will keep kids' attention clamped eagerly to every page"

    SHE Magazine

  • "Dick King-Smith needs no introduction and these two tales will win new fans . . . Would be suitable for early independent readers - but adults won't mind having them read to them either"

Dick King-Smith

Dick King-Smith served in the Grenadier Guards during the Second World War, and afterwards spent twenty years as a farmer in Gloucestershire, the county of his birth. Many of his stories are inspired by his farming experiences. He wrote a great number of children's books, including The Sheep-Pig (winner of the Guardian Award and filmed as Babe), Harry's Mad, The Hodgeheg, Martin's Mice, The Invisible Dog, The Queen's Nose and The Crowstarver. At the British Book Awards in 1991 he was voted Children's Author of the Year. In 2009 he was made OBE for services to children's literature. Dick King-Smith died in 2011 at the age of eighty-eight.
