The Bolds

Product Information

The nosy neighbor however keeps them on their toes, as he suspects something is very strange about them. The dialogue is fun and irreverent, and Julian pokes lots of fun at the ridiculousness of modern life as The Bolds adjust to Teddington society. One day a foolish English couple wander into the bush, and under the intense heat take a dip in a pond. Well, hyenas laugh a lot, so of course they like jokes—the good, bad, and the ugly—even after hearing them several dozen times.

Charity Bedu-Addo is also fantastic; she shows off her strong ability to multi-role, performing as best friend Minni, a fellow hyena, and the original Mrs Bold who was eaten by a hungry croc.

A louche loner in dressing gown and fez who clutches a teddy bear for comfort, he’s fretfully obsessed with the strange goings on next door, particularly Mr Bold’s habit of rubbing his backside against the hydrangeas.My boy spends hours reading through the joke collection which is superbly interwoven into the storyline.

His sharp script is perky, quirky and surprising, provides plenty of opportunity for fun and participation, which has the audience howling with laughter. The children make a great friend of schoolmate Minnie (Charity Bedu-Addo) but things can’t go entirely smoothly or there wouldn’t be any drama. They decided they would take the clothing, money passports and airline tickets from the Bolds tent and head to England.

When I later explained to someone that it's a book about hyenas who impersonate humans and live in a little house in London with their two pup children, I was viciously mocked for not realizing instantly it's intended for young readers, like second and third grade.
