Tarzanna taught him to speak animalese and Gerald taught her English. He persuaded Tarzanna to visit his country, but she wasn't happy, so to cheer her up Gerald's parents took her to the zoo. This was a serious mistake." "Cole won the Kurt Maschler Award, or the Emil, for Drop Dead (Jonathan Cape, 1996) , which she wrote and illustrated. The former award from Maschler Publications and Booktrust annually recognised one British "work of imagination for children, in which text and illustration are integrated so that each enhances and balances the other." She was one of several commended runners-up for the Kate Greenaway Medal, the annual Library Association award for illustration in British children's books, for both Princess Smartypants (1986) and Prince Cinders (1987).".
