Fay Weldon
Children's Books


Party Puddle Illustrated by Carol Wright William Collins Sons & Co Ltd First British Edition, 1989 Not published in the U.S.
From the book jacket: Rex was not as happy as he might have been to receive the party invitation. In fact, he was in such a bad temper that he tore it up. His sister's tears and his mother's scolding just made him angrier, so he crawled under the bed like a bear crawling into his den. What happened then was so colourful and dramatic that it had to unfold into a picture book. Carol Wright's realization of Fay Weldon's story takes children into Rex's dream and a sequence of fantastic parties that will linger in the imagination long after the real party is over. Bio from the book jacket: Fay Weldon is, in the adult world, a well-known writer of novels, short stories, stage and television plays. She has four sons. Although she has written librettos for young people's opera, PARTY PUDDLE is only her second children's book. The first, WOLF THE MECHANICAL DOG, is for older children.
