The Hog, the Shrew and the Hullabaloo

Written by: Julia Copus


The second Harry and Lil story from acclaimed Faber poet Julia Copus, who has recently turned her hand to picture books for the first time! The tale of a hog - and his friend Candy Stripe Lil - kept awake by mysterious noises in the night is sure to delight adults and children alike.

It was night in the village - a still, dark night -
and Harry the Hog was sleeping tight.
In her house at the foot of Piggyback Hill,
also asleep, was Candy Stripe Lil.


THE HOG, THE SHREW & THE HULLABALOO was published on 5th March 2015 by Faber.
