Having sorted out the cat world in Cat with Piano Tuna, investigated the pig universe in Pig's Ear and upset the birds in Bird Dropping, Simon Drew now chooses to sharpen his merciless wit on trusting and unsuspecting dogs. Perplexing puns - both visual and verbal - mingle with some of the English language's most excruciating verses in this light-hearted romp with 'Man's Best Friend'. You will emerge from Dogsbodies all the richer for the experience. You will be proficient, for example, in the mysteries of dog semaphore and acquainted with that most useful handydog Pointer and Decorator. Who could ask for more? Clearly Simon Drew is finally going to the dogs. SELLING POINTS: Perplexing puns - both visual and verbal - mingle with some of the English language's most excruciating verses Vintage Drew: everthing one has come to expect from him is here Mind-boggling wordplay and arresting artwork turns the accepted canine world into a topsy-turvy one AUTHOR: Simon Drew is an unusual combination of artist and wordsmith. He combines these two talents with an inventive and quirky sense of humour in his range of books and invites us to look at the world through the magic of Drewsian spectacles. A new perspective unfolds on the world: the familiar becomes unfamiliar, the known becomes unknown, the serious becomes humorous, reality becomes nonsense. It is a topsy-turvy world of visual and verbal puns that never fail to delight. Simon Drew shakes us out of complacency in the most enjoyable of ways. For those who are not already addicted there is only one thing to suggest - read them all! ILLUSTRATIONS 48 colour illustrations No library descriptions found. |
