A charming reissue of a classic Judith Kerr backlist treasure with a beautifully refreshed new cover look. When Willy is told he's not allowed to bring his pets to his sister's wedding, despite his promise, they turn up anyway... with disastrous results!
Once there was a boy called Willy.
He had lots of pets and a grown-up sister.
Willy's sister was so grown-up that she was getting married, and Willy was going to the wedding.
"Shall I bring my pets to the wedding?" said Willy.
"No," said Willy's father.
"No," said Willy's mother.
"No," said Willy's grown-up sister.
"Better not, old chap," said Bruce, who was going to marry Willy's sister.
"Your pets might not like it."
Despite Willy’s attempt to keep his beloved pets from coming to his sister’s wedding they some how manage to find a way in to the church and the even the reception afterwards, with disastrous results!
This is a charming, hilarious and beautifully illustrated story from the author of the perennial children’s classics ‘The Tiger Who Came to Tea’ and ‘Mog the Forgetful Cat’.

Judith Kerr OBE was born in Berlin. Her family left Germany in 1933 to escape the rising Nazi party, and came to England. She studied at the Central School of Art and later worked as a scriptwriter for the BBC.
Judith married the celebrated screenwriter Nigel Kneale in 1954. She left the BBC to look after their two children, who inspired her first picture book, The Tiger Who Came to Tea. Published in 1968 and never out of print in the fifty years since, it has become a much-loved classic and perennial bestseller.
Judith was awarded the Booktrust Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016, and in 2019 was named Illustrator of the Year at the British Book Awards. Judith died in May 2019 at the age of 95, and her stories continue to entertain and delight generations of children.
