Description

**THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER** A hilarious collection of Hercule Van Wolfwinkle's 'extremely realistic' pet portraits. Warning: may not be suitable for anyone who actually likes animals or has the ability to see. Not only does Hercule's unusual talent shine through on every page, each portrait is captioned with a review written by its bewildered recipient: "Tell ya what mate, why don't you get back to me when you've drawn a picture of my actual dog" "It gets worse and worse the more your eyes scan down the page. Which is really quite the achievement given how bad her face looks" "We really miss Marley. If I ever think I might be forgetting what he looked like, I can gaze at your portrait and know it was nothing like that."

Author Biography

Reviews

-'It looks like someone has tried to build a flat-pack version of my dog without any instructions.' -'You've made my children cry.' -'I've had to open my mum's Christmas present to help me get over this. I'm covered in tears, Ferrero Rocher wrappers and shame.' -'I rescued this cat. He had a really tough start to his life, but believe me when I say that this is probably the worst thing that's ever happened to him.'
