Was there ever such a husband? A classic find from the Faber archive and a sure hit on Father''s Day! The story of a man who creates more trouble for himself than he could ever have expected, will bring a smile to every dad''s face. It''s also a hilarious fable to read to children – as you would expect from a story that features a dad getting stuck in a chimney due to a cow falling off a roof . . .
