Eddie Albert And The Amazing Animal Gang Meet the author: Eddie Albert And The Amazing Animal Gang

O’Grady has been commissioned to write another two books in the children’s series, but scoffs at the notion that he might be a latter-day Enid Blyton. I have watched some of Paul O'Grady's animal programmes so I was excited when I saw this book by him. It's a great story about a boy called Eddie who can talk to animals. Along with his other pets, they get into an exciting adventure. I really couldn't put the book down! Paul O'Grady (June 1955 - March 2023) first came to fame in the guise of Lily Savage, and was nominated for a Perrier Award at the Edinburgh Festival in 1991. Lily later became a regular on many TV shows but has now retired (reportedly). I was actually quite shy, but when I was about nine, I acted in a school play. They erected a tepee on stage. I stood up in it and the whole thing collapsed around me! I vividly remember the audience laughing and I realised then that it was easy to be funny! So instead of crawling out of the tent. I did the whole thing inside it, moving around the stage!Paul O’Grady has come a long way since his drag queen days as foul-mouthed, acid-tongued blonde bombshell Lily Savage. Ahhh, sweet! You’ve also met lots of animals through your work on the telly. What are some of your best experiences? My favourite chapter was at Vera’s party because of the people that were there and the description of the paintings. Orangutans have an arm span of just over 2m. Their long arms and hook-shaped hands and feet make them great climbers! Once I got to feed a baby vulture called PJ. If he felt threatened, I’d have to lie on him as his mother would and spread my arms out. He was a sweetheart. I met a baby elephant in India who would try and sit on my knee. He used to break my heart and break my leg at the same time! And I’ve bottle-fed baby cheetahs. To have 12 cheetahs on top of you fast asleep isn’t something that happens every day!
