Summary

The Bolds are a family of hyenas living as humans in a suburban house. But now their kindness to animal waifs and strays has become legendary, and more and more animals keep turning up to stay!

But when the Bolds take in a couple of racehorses who are on the run, they worry their animal magnetism is getting to be too much. Have these hyenas bitten off more than they can chew?

Critic reviews

"Funny and clever with a good dose of yucky humour. Children will appreciate the wry digs at the nonsense of modern living." ( The Bookseller, on The Bolds)

A hilariously funny story.

I love these books. They are such fun to listen to and I laugh at all the jokes snuck in by Mr. Bold. Julian Clary knows how to narrate it best as he wrote it, and he had the best voices for all the characters.

I still need to get the Bolds go Wild, the Bolds on Holiday and the Bolds in Trouble.
I have listened to the Bolds to the Rescue and the Bolds go Green. I love them all.

Some of my favourite characters are Miranda the monkey, Mrs. Bold and Mr. McNumpty.

The first story introduces you to the characters and sets the scene for the series. The Bolds rescue Uncle Tony and Miranda from the zoo and everyone lives happily ever after. Then the Bolds to the Rescue introduces more characters who come to the Bolds to learn how to be humans. The Bolds on Holiday takes you to the seaside when Bobby is injured and he must become a dog. The Bolds find that someone is stealing dogs from the residents who come to the seaside. The Bolds go Green welcomes Anika, who comes to live with the Bolds and takes them to London with her to search for her friends.

The rest of the books I have not read yet, but I am sure they are incredible as well!
All in all, a fabulous book with a charming hyena family as the stars.
