Quentin Blake’s award winning picture books have been delighting readers for decades. In this classic story of two friends, Beatrice the ewe and Vanessa the nanny-goat set off from the field where they have spent their days nattering and chomping in search of an adventure.
How these two harmless old creatures manage to frighten off a pack of wolves and a great big brown bear with the help of a few things in a capacious bag and a lot of ingenuity is a particular gem.

Beatrice, the ewe, and Vanessa, the nanny-goat, have spent their whole lives chomping and nattering in the same field. One dull day they decide to go on holiday, only taking with them some balloons and something more surprising, both of which turn out to be very handy.
