Synopsis

Mr Biff is a boxer but he likes to eat cream cakes and sit by the fire in his slippers. Mr Bop is a boxer too, but he's the fittest, toughest man in town. So Mr Biff needs to train hard before their charity match - but will he strong enough to swap his cream cakes for carrots? Based on the classic 'Happy Families' card game, this highly entertaining series is ideal for reading and sharing at home or at school. It is guided by the Education Adviser, Brian Thompson, and written by the award-winning author, Allan Ahlberg.

Publisher and industry reviews

UK Kirkus review

Bright, lively books for those who have just mastered reading and need to practise it. Each of these involving stories centres on an individual in a Happy Family using words and pictures together in a way that encourages the transition from picture books to early reading books. Plenty of humour ensures their success. (6-9 yrs) (Kirkus UK)
