DescriptionLaurence Higgins is an enormously fat black cat. His friends tell him to lose weight if he wants a girl friend. He gets thinner with one meal a day but the cat he fancies tells him she doesn't like slim boys. Triumphantly Lawrence returns to his four meals a day, spurred on by the thought of meeting Bella when he's back to his normal size. Author descriptionFormerly a farmer and a teacher, Dick King-Smith is best-known for his third career as a writer. His phenomenally successful children's stories are marked by endearing humour and characters of unique depth and life. THE SHEEP-PIG won The Guardian Award and was transformed into the blockbusting film, BABE, which added hugely to his profile. Dick lives in Keynsham, near Bristol. |
