"Wickedly funny, Babette Cole is the sort of adult sometimes more popular with children than with parents, who might be embarrassed at her total lack of shame."
--"Independent"
Babette Cole "produces zany, comical images of exuberant and eccentric characters that break down taboos."
--"The Times"

"From the Hardcover edition."

Babette Cole is filled with a zest for life. She lives in the English countryside but travels extensively to exotic parts of the world and also round this country, visiting schools and meeting children. Babett is the author of many classic and wonderfully anarchic picture books for children including Drop Dead, winner of the Kurt Maschler Award.
