Readers will learn how to create the sound of the fart of a T-Rex or a Viking in this super-silly picture book! Bored with life on the farm, Old MacDonald and his animal friends fashion a time-machine (it seems to run on Methane) and go time-travelling. As they zip through the centuries they encounter a flatulent Inca, a right royal stinker (Henry VIII) and a cowgirl who’s filled up on beans... In fact, to what will be the immense satisfaction of fans of this series, everyone they come across is mid-parp. This is the third book detailing parps heard by Old MacDonald, but the format has lost none of its appeal, and this will have young readers hysterical with laughter on every reading. E-I-E-I-O!
Old MacDonald is off on his most hilarious adventure yet, on a parp-powered journey through the fart-filled past! Join him in riotous rhyme as he meets dinosaurs, Vikings and queens, and laugh out loud as they parp their way through history in this third side-splitting offering from the comic genius Olaf Falafel.
Olaf Falafel said “I’m really excited – this is the kind of book that a six year old Olaf would have loved. The fact that I also love it now shows you how much I've grown up!”
Olaf Falafel is a surrealist comedian and illustrator who, this year, performed his debut stand up show, ‘Olaf Falafel and The Cheese of Truth’ at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to critical acclaim. As well as finding comedic success onstage, Falafel has also enjoyed huge online fame with his short viral videos. These absurdist movies include a croissant-coiffured talking Donald Trump puppet, slices of truth telling cheese being thrown onto newspapers and the Bee Gees hiding in his beard.
The comedy website Chortle affectionately described Falafel as ‘an idiot’ and when he doesn’t have a microphone in his hand you’ll probably find him with a pencil and pad trying to draw something equally idiotic.
A unique mixture of one-liners and Scandinavian-tinged stories has earned Olaf the purely fictitious title of 'Sweden's eighth funniest comedian'. His recent exploits include coming second in the 2014 Laughing Horse New Act of the Year, beating the Comedy Store's infamous Gong Show (twice just to show off!) being crowned the 2013 Golden Jester and also being named Last Minute Comedy Club's New Act of 2013. Old Macdonald Heard a Parp is Olaf's very first picture book and was discovered via Twitter.
