Synopsis
TWO comical adventures about Norbert, the fat old English horse and his grumpy friend, Colin the Cuckoo, rolled into one book! In NORBERT, the silly old horse who lives in Farmer Finbar’s field has a serious problem... HIS TEETH ARE GREEN! Unless this is quickly rectified, Delilah, the pretty pony in the next field will surely never speak to him. But how can a horse clean his own teeth? With the help of his friend Colin, the irritable cuckoo who lives high up in the foliage of the old sycamore tree, Norbert concocts a cunning plan... Will he succeed in winning Delilah’s heart? Or will it all end in total disaster? In NORBERT'S SUMMER HOLIDAY our hero is more depressed than ever because Colin the Cuckoo, his only friend in the world, is preparing to fly off for the holiday of a lifetime on the French Riviera, leaving him behind! The badgers who reside underneath the hedge are no company due to their nocturnal habits, and Delilah, the pretty pony who lives in the next field is continuing to ignore him. When Colin’s holiday plans go horribly wrong, however, it is down to Norbert to save the day! Will he manage to transform their field into a passable imitation of the French Riviera without incurring the wrath of Farmer Finbar? And will he win Delilah’s affections in the process? Another comic caper from Norbert and friends!

About the Author
James Sutherland was born in Stoke-on-Trent, England, many, many, many years ago. So long ago, in fact, that he can't remember a thing about it. The son of a musician, he moved around lots as a youngster, attending schools in the Isle of Man and Spain before returning to Stoke where he lurked until the age of 18. After gaining a French degree at Bangor University, North Wales, James toiled manfully at a variety of office jobs before making a daring escape through a fire exit, hell-bent on writing silly nonsense full-time. In his spare time, James enjoys hunting for slugs in the garden, chatting with his gold fish and frolicking around the house in his tartan nightie.
