About the author
Ross Collins
187 books46 followersRoss was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1972.
He would eat anything and resembled a currant bun.
As he grew up he was fond of drawing, the Bionic Man and precariously swinging backwards on chairs.
He graduated from the Glasgow School of Art in 1994 with a First in Illustration. In the same year he won the MacMillan Children's Book Prize an achievement that opened many doors in the Big Smoke.
Ross then spent two years in London cultivating an exotic image of the scribbling Scotsman abroad.
Longing for the cold and damp of the North, Ross returned to Glasgow, where he spends his time writing and illustrating children's books, doing animation character development, walking the dug by the banks of Loch Lomond and precariously swinging backwards on chairs.

Why you got to be so down on fat dogs? Also the whole 'mad cow'/'evil cow' female villain thing is kinda heinous. Be more imaginative and stop contributing to misogynism in kids.

July 15, 2025This could have been a funny book, if it weren't so riddled with misogyny throughout. Evil/ mad cows and mean digs at a female character's makeup, not to mention the repeated use of the word fat (aimed at a dog, but still)... just why? It really ruined the tone of the story.

A fun, super-fast, strange little story involving a boy who loves cheese, some very strange dreams, and a very weird factory.

Don't worry it's not scary

It has to be five stars just for entertainment value and pure originality. Another silly little book for the kids. Avoid it though if you dislike cheese or evil cows. 😂

Volslagen nonsens boek met veel tekeningen, korte zinnen en veel ruimte tussen de regels. Kwaadaardige koe-gravin wil wraak nemen op de mensheid door het produceren van nachtmerrie-kazen voor kinderen. Maar Siem en zijn dikke hond Bruno weten haar te overmeesteren ( hond bijt zich vast in haar uier) en laten de fabriek ontploffen.
Voor kinderen (jongens) uit groep 5. Het boek ziet er aantrekkelijk uit maar echt grappig vind ik het niet. Kwestie van smaak?
