The Acme Publishing Company decided to re-publish a number of pony books. But their staff aren't the most competent in the world. When they printed the books they made a number of typing errors in the titles. Can you work out what books these strange titles really are?
This is a fairly easy one - a bit of light relief! ;D
1. DODO AND ROGER DIDO AND ROGUE
2. GRAB THE REIN CRAB THE ROAN
3. I CURRIED THE CORN I CARRIED THE HORN
4. SLOW CLOD STALLION SNOW CLOUD STALLION
5. THE WONKEY FACE THE DONKEY RACE
6. BIG ROD BIG RED
7. SIEVE THE PENNIES SAVE THE PONIES
8. SLOW BURPING BUMMER
9. PRANCE AMONG PANSIES PRINCE AMONG PONIES
10. THE NUTTER
11. THE THICK BUMPERS THE TRICK JUMPERS
12. YOUR RUDE TOME FOUR RODE HOME
13. BIMBO RACER BRUMBY RACER
14. THE BONY MOPERS THE PONY DOPERS
15. GUEST HOUSE ON THE MOON GHOST HORSE ON THE MOOR
16. THE BAG AND BONK PONY THE RAG AND BONE PONY
17. PUKE CHAMP
18. SO SMELLY THING
19. HIPPY A WELSH SLOB HIPPO A WELSH COB
20. THUNDERFART THUNDERFOOT

dying to know what "so smelly thing" really is Well it could apply to my cat! ;D Some clues for the last 3: 10. THE NUTTER - only 2 letters have changed from the original title. Written by someone famous for non-horsy books. 11. PUKE CHAMP - the first word is very similar to the original one. Written by an Australian author. 12. SO SMELLY THING - author initials NG. First of a modern 2 part series with a boy main character.
