The Bolds
Julian Clary, David Roberts
New edition with a BOLD new look and featuring exclusive new content
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 bit of a giggle. One slight difference: they’re hyenas. Yes, that’s right – they’re covered in fur, have tails tucked into their trousers, and they really, really like to laugh.
So far, the Bolds have managed to keep things under wraps, even when their children Bobby and Betty were born. But the nosy man next door smells a rat (or a hyena), and a trip to the local wildlife park, and the brilliantly wacky heist that results, could be the end of Teddington’s best-kept secret. Whatever will the neighbours think?
Reviews
This book was just a great book with a fun story and set of characters. It's suspenceful when the plot kicks in about Mr.Mcnumpty Miranda and Tony are great along with the other hyenas at the driveby zoo thing. I recommend this to any readers age 8 and above to appreciate the humour.

Very good book. I found it funny and I couldn't put the book down. I liked every single character. For this book, I liked it when Tony came to live with the Bolds too. I would recommend this book to anyone.

This book was really funny and interesting. It is about a family of heyanas that are so smart that they've learnt English and taken place of a woman. Later in the book, they find out about an old heyana that the zoo wants to put to sleep. So they make a plane but Mr MC numpty is watching.

I loved Mr. Bold because of his jokes. The Bolds were very clever Hyena People. Their kindness was also lovely.

Not my favourite book

It is a really, really, really good book. I especially liked the part when Mr. McNumpty reveals his identity. I like how the daring Bolds manage to rescue Tony and the trick with Minnie's dad's bones and how the keepers thought Tony's family had become traitors to him.

Interesting because they rescued Tony and because they are hyenas.
