Beatrice and Vanessa cover

An unlikely pair of heroines take on a pack of wolves in this hilarious story, illustrated by the inimitable Quentin Blake.

Beatrice, the ewe, and Vanessa, the nanny-goat, have spent their whole lives chomping and nattering in the same field. One dull day they decide to go on holiday, only taking with them some balloons and something more surprising, both of which turn out to be very handy . . .Beatrice the ewe and Vanessa the goat are bored. They've chewed the same grass and had the same conversations their whole lives. But when Vanessa suggests a holiday, neither of them could ever anticipate the adventures - and dangers - that lie ahead of them...
