In a dark dark street

There is a dark dark house . . .

In this FUNNYBONES story, the skeletons go sledging - WHEE! - and crashing - BANG!

They can't see their bones in the white snow but they can see a black cat . . . until she slips into their dark, dark cellar . . .

Reviews

That rare jewel, a brilliant "Dad" book... fabulous stuff as ever from Shirley Hughes.

—— Read it, Daddy

In the run-up to Shirley Hughes's 90th birthday, this volume assembles stories in which Alfie's father helps his son: by sharing weekend activities, checking under the bed for flying loobies, retrieving a toy from lost property, finding a wandering cat's real home. Hughes makes the domestic blissful.
