Summary

Mr and Mrs Bold are just like you and me: they live in a nice house, they have jobs and they love to have a giggle. One slight difference: they're hyenas. That’s right - covered in fur, tails tucked into their trousers, and they really like to laugh.

So far the Bolds have managed to keep things under wraps. But the nosy man next door smells a rat. Could this be the end of Teddington's best-kept secret?

Critic reviews

"Funny and clever with a good dose of yucky humour. Children will appreciate the wry digs at the nonsense of modern living." ( The Bookseller)

I love this book

It was so funny I love that the Bold’s are Hyena’s. I was surprised when Mr McNumpty said he was a bear but I’ve listened to it so much I’ve memorised it now!

Love Julian

This was for me to listen to a supposedly adult earring on pensioner but love Julian and this was a light hearted fun story to listen to made all the better by Julian narrating it’s was light hearted and fun.
I have just listened to Julian and his dogs The Lick Of Love which was very very good, I will be listening to the next story about The Bolds very soon.

The bolds review by Lyla Burgess Xxx

I really enjoyed this book it was long and entertaining the whole book I thought it engaged with you a lot and I really liked that the star that was lost was I thought some times it just dragged on about the same thing otherwise I thought the book was absolutely amazing and if I had the time I would read and listen to it over and over again and again. I thought as a total 4.5/5.0 this would be how many stars you would get out of 5. From Lyla Xxx
