The Bolds

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by David Roberts. After a newlywed couple is eaten by crocodiles while on safari, a pair of enterprising African hyenas finds their passports. Soon, the hyenas and their twin pups are living as the human Bold family outside London, trying to keep their secret from suspicious neighbor Mr. McNumpty (who may have his own secret). Jokes and riddles, as well as Roberts's cleverly incorporated illustrations, keep the narrative lively.
