  Why did the cow cross the road? To get to the udder side!

  Why do cows wear bells? Because their horns don’t work!

  What sport do horses like to play? Stable tennis!

  When Julian Clary isn’t having a silly time dressing up and telling jokes onstage, he loves to be at home with his pets. He has lots of them: dogs, cats, ducks, and chickens. His lifelong love of animals inspired him to tell a story about what would happen if they pretended to be like us. Julian loves going on tour around the country reading his books aloud to children and animals.

  David Roberts always loved to draw and paint as a child, and when he grew up his talents took him all the way to Hong Kong, where he got a job making beautiful hats. But he always wanted to illustrate children’s books, and so he came back to England to work with the finest authors in the land. David loves drawing animals and clothes and hats, so what could be better than a book about animals in clothes and hats?
