Grimwood: Let the Fur Fly! by Nadia Shireen | Goodreads
The original Gimwood had my daughter laughing until her body was shaking, this book continues to enchant with its magical world and loveable characters. Nadia Shireen has won awards for her picture books including the UKLA Book Award for Good Little Wolf, and her latest, Barbara Throws a Wobbler, has been described as a ‘little doorway of joy’ by Caitlin Moran. Perfect for readers age 7 to 107, fans of Dog Man, Roald Dahl, Mr Gum and David Walliams, and anyone who loves to laugh. I particularly liked the many little notes and signs peppered along the pages that help the reader understand everything they need to know to fully immerse themselves in the story. This is one of those books that is supposed to be silly, funny and random and it is indeed, very silly, very funny and very random.
The further illustrated adventures of Ted and Nancy, the fox siblings doing their best to settle into their new woodland home, do not disappoint.

Nadia Shireen has been described as one of the “best and brightest picture book creators working in Britain today” (The Observer, London). These books aren't as daffily silly as, say, Mr Gum, but they get to look in that direction at least, while providing fully rounded narratives. Ted and Nancy must muster up bags of courage, rally their friends, and show off their treebonking skills to save the home they've grown to love.Take this from a family of avocado lovers: if you have kids, get them this book and read it together. I found out afterwards that this was the second book in the Grimwood series but that didn’t bother at all. Grimwood is like Winnie-the-Pooh written by the Pythons, and so madly inventive and funny I was howling with laughter by the third page.
