An anarchic, hilarious story by exciting debut author Bethan Clarke, illustrated with deadpan humour by rising star Anders Frang.
Gus the Goat loves guessing. And he loves rhyming. So, when he meets Mavis Mole, he can’t help himself trying to guess where she lives. Is it in a hole? In a bowl!? In a Sausage ROLL!! No, not quite . . .
This super-silly and totally HOLE-ARIOUS story will have kids laughing out loud and joining in with Gus Goat’s outlandish guessing game. Perfect for inspiring a love of language in little ones. Fans of The Day The Crayons Quit by Drew Daywalt and Oliver Jeffers, the Supertato series by Paul Linnet and Sue Hendra, and anything Dr Seuss, will adore Holey Moley!
"The ultimate silly rhyming picture book . . . Loved by my four-year-old granddaughter, she always requests it when I see her." -- Sarah Donaldson * The Booksellers Circle *
"If silliness wins prizes from young readers, then this wonderfully nonsensical story is topping the shortlist as Clarke blends her rollicking rhyming skills with the deadpan humour of Frang’s stylish, contemporary illustrations. Perfectly created to inspire a love of language, nonsense and puns, and with a delightful final twist at the end, this is a story to share and enjoy time and time again." -- Lancashire Evening Post
"This would be a perfect story to read aloud and children will ask to hear it again and again." -- Anne Bradley
“With tantalising expectations and fun inferential guessing on every page, this is the perfect book to read with younger children or read together with an EYFS class. Not only will it get children laughing, but they will also be thinking creatively about language.” * May 2024 book club picks *
