With Derek the Sheep we have that rarest of things; a new British comedy strip that works on an incredibly simple level but manages to be a perfect experience for children and grown ups alike.
Forbidden Planet International
Grumpy, but loveable sheep, Derek, is always looking for the greener grass in life, but he is constantly thwarted in his plans by the other meddlesome (and tiresome!) animals on his crazy farm!
From the legendary pages of The Beano and Beanomax, Bog Eyed Books present the third book in the popular Derek The Sheep series. Reprinted for the very first time, these increasingly loopy stories can finally be savoured by old fans and new!
