About James Croft
I'm a children's illustrator and author based in Bristol, UK, where I spend my days dreaming up stories and drawing silly little animals. I've been doodling for as long as I can remember, and I’ve turned that lifelong love of illustration into creating light-hearted, funny books that I hope are as fun to read as they are to make. They’re made to make the kids giggle but you might even get a wry smile from the grown-ups.
My Thoughts
James Croft’s "The Hyena Who Laughed So Hard His Pants Fell Off" is an absolute riot, promising belly laughs for both children and the adults reading along. Set in the vibrant heart of the African savanna, where the sun blazes high, this delightful tale introduces a trio of mischievous friends, led by a cheeky hyena who, true to his nature, is always up to no good. From the very first page, their fun, frolics, and pursuit of entertainment are infectious, especially when spotty pants are involved!
The narrative is simple yet perfectly pitched for its young audience (aged 2-7), creating an immediate connection with "silly little minds" who will undoubtedly find themselves charmed by the antics of these lovable troublemakers. Their quest for fun leads to increasingly hilarious situations, culminating in the uproarious titular event that children will find endlessly amusing. But just when you think you know where the story is heading, watch out for the grumpy, old elephant! This surprising character adds an unexpected twist, proving that even the most stoic of savanna residents can have a surprise in store. It's a wonderful reminder that laughter and kindness can bridge any gap.
Beyond the rip-roaring tale of friendship and mischief, it's the illustrations that truly elevate this book to a must-have for any young reader's collection. They are simply wonderful! Filled with bags of fun, the vibrant colours burst from the pages, bringing the savanna to life with a joyous energy. The characters are drawn with incredible expressiveness, capturing every nuance of their glee, surprise, and, of course, the hyena’s uncontrollable laughter. The artwork perfectly complements the playful tone of the story, making every turn of the page a visual treat. Each illustration is a masterpiece of whimsical charm, ensuring children are captivated and eager to see what happens next.
"The Hyena Who Laughed So Hard His Pants Fell Off" is more than just a silly story; it’s an invitation to a good ol' laugh, a celebration of friendship, and a testament to the power of a well-told, beautifully illustrated adventure. Highly recommended for its infectious humor and stunning visuals!
