This series has a huge number of five star reviews on Toppsta, and for good reason: it's an absosolutely hilarious series for readers 7+ about a family of hyenas living among humans!
The Bolds are just like any other family: they live in a house (in Teddington), they have jobs (like writing Christmas cracker jokes) and they love to have a bit of a giggle. One slight difference: they are hyenas. In each book, the family is either getting in big trouble, going on a wild adventure, or getting surprise visits.
The first book has gotten so many Toppsta readers onto the next ones, and fans of Villains Academy, The Worst Class in the World, An Alien in the Jam Factory and Horrid Henry have moved on to this series and stuck with it, making it a perfect one to nurture a love for reading in children.
