He wrote 'Avocado baby' and 'Oi get off our train' among others, I really loved those books, as does my DD.

And Troubloff.
That’s sad news, I loved his books as a child. DS did too.

That is a shame. The Baby was given to me to ease the arrival of my younger sister (quite realistic about the noise etc!) and we had The Rabbit too.
