Description:

The Girl, the Penguin, the Home-Schooling and the Gin by Guy Adams
'It's alright,' said the Penguin, in exactly the sort of way that Penguins don't. 'This is the only book you'll ever need to find complete happiness.'

Because it's been a bit of a trying time, hasn't it? You now know that your five-year-old is better at maths than you. And English. And at not crying during work. And the only way to get through it with a smile has been to buy all the booze and try to remember how to do 'going out'.

But don't worry, here to paper over all the cracks is a touching book, full of tender animal friends, pretty pictures and not too many words. A book for our times - to remind us of the precious joys of having all the family together, non-stop, twenty-four hours a day.

Owning it will make you happy. Giving it to other people will make you seem kind. Reading it will remind you that you're nearly out of gin.

The Woman, the Mink, the Cod and the Donkey by Margerie Swash
She was looking for wine. Instead she found friendship.
(Okay, it was with three animals, but she really hadn’t drunk any wine at that point, promise.)
—
Come, dearest reader, and dive into this book. It’s warm and safe in here, which you will have guessed already because it’s about a human and three animals.

You might not be able to remember the animals or the order they fall within the title, but that doesn’t matter. The pictures will remind you that the story is about a woman, a mink, a salmon and a donkey. COD, not salmon, sorry – it’s a cod.

The woman is embarking on an important journey. She does not know her destination, but she knows what she’ll find when she gets there: an open pub. It has been a long time since she has been in one due to a strange, sad region of yester-year called ‘Lockdown’. On her travels she bumps into the mink, the cod and a donkey who inexplicably resembles Donald Trump, and together they discuss their most valued life lessons, such as the value of travel insurance, and why it’s always important to wear breathable pants.
