About this deal

Magrs’ glee in spoofing The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse is evident throughout the The Panda, The Cat and The Dreadful Teddy. Magrs’ artwork is an utter delight. It is simple but perfect, striking just the right balance between being childlike and more sophisticated than it seems at first glance. Likewise, the text is never a cruel spoof, but it is extremely funny. At almost every turn, Panda smashes Teddy’s optimistic outlook with a witty retort or more often than not a raft of expletives that never fail to bring a smile. This is one very sweary Panda! Find the hottest teen books, connect with your favorite YA authors and meet new friends who share your reading interests! As a fan of the charming book that Magrs that is cheekily parodying, I wasn’t sure how I would feel about this, but the fabulous illustration on the cover immediately drew me in. I was won over straight away with the contrast of the childish doodles and the grown up content that blended perfectly. It’s delightfully uncouth and I loved it. I love it. Genuinely… Really appeals to my warped sense of humour.’– Gary Andrews, author of Finding Joy

The RuPaul's Drag Race legends, stars of UNHhhh, and expert biological women share the secrets of their feminine mystique in this satirical guide to beauty and homemaking. It’s lovely to see those moments between them where they show they’re really good friends underneath it all. That rings so true because we all have friends that we spar with or take the piss out of, but underneath there’s a deep bond. It’s those moments that show Magrs’ genius. It’s not just a simple spoof; this is a world we all know and deep down sometimes we’re all a bit like the Panda, aren’t we?

Summary

The gentle and reassuring traditions of classic children's books lovingly observed, and then gleefully profaned. Are you sitting comfortably? Well, that was probably your first mistake.'

This is a book of nice illustrations and some words from which you will likely gain some sort of inspiration. Like:Thank you to @tandemcollectiveuk @harpercollinsuk and @pmagrs for the gifted copy of 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑷𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒂, 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑪𝒂𝒕 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑫𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒇𝒖𝒍 𝑻𝒆𝒅𝒅𝒚 🐼🧸😻 I absolutely loved it! I'm a novelist and I also run the Fiction Doctor critiquing service. I live in Levenshulme, Manchester, and I'm a lifelong Coronation Street fan. Decrease quantity for The Panda, the Cat and the Dreadful Teddy : A Parody Increase quantity for The Panda, the Cat and the Dreadful Teddy : A Parody Señor 105 & the Elements of Danger • The Casebook of the Manleigh Halt Irregulars • The Obverse Book of Detectives: The Unwoken Princess • Zenith Lives!: The Albino's Shadow It's basically a parody of The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse (which I also loved). Whereas that was full of inspiring and thought provoking writing, this book explores our reality. We can't be perfect all the time and sometimes we are like Panda and just don't give a shit.
