These are the stories of four animals and their friends. There are two cats - Cher Khan and Tabby. Cher Khan is a young ginger cat and is rather vain. He loves attention and is forever looking at himself in any mirror he can find. Tabby loves to eat, and anything will do. A cat who likes his independence, he is quite a Jack the Lad, but has a very kind heart. KoKo is a West Highland Terrier who is very good at sorting out problems. Blackbird is, well, a blackbird, excellent at singing. They all live in the village of Little Chirp and get along together well. Mostly! Nearby is the town of Chirp, which has a circus, shops, village green, a playground and a library. In Little Chirp live Jamie and Leah, who reside at Little Chirp Farm. Jamie is a farmer, and the couple make a good living from the wonderful food Leah produces from the farm. Jamie is also a great handyman. Dr Blister runs the village veterinary surgery. He is a good-hearted chap who will help any animal in trouble. Later on, we will meet the tigers, whose growl is far worse than their bite. The animals all speak Animal Language, which is not a difficult language to learn. Most humans are too lazy to learn it, and although young children can speak it, many grow out of it. However, animals understand EVERYTHING that we say.

A hilarious exploration of grumpiness: this is a book for any child who has ever woken up to find everything unreasonably annoying. Today is a terrible day for Wolfie: it's cloudy (there is a single cloud), the water in the bubble bath is ice cold, there aren't enough chocolate chips in the cookies and everyone else is having a nice day (lucky them). No one understands Wolfie at school. But then Penguin comes along... and she does understand. Suddenly things start to get a whole lot better.  This is a story about how when you're feeling misunderstood, sometimes all it takes to change your perspective completely, is a like-minded friend. A wonderful, and relatable story about the loneliness that comes with feeling grumpy and how a friend can give a rain cloud day, a sunny new spin.  Funny for both children and adults alike - while children will delight at the funny dissonance between text and image, the parents will recognise the all too relatable tale of out-of-proportion toddler grumpiness.
