AN author has released a book of illustrations about a family of goats who go to explore Llandudno town.

John Arnold, who has written a number of short stories, has released Flora and Fauna Part 1, which follows a family of goats as they explore Llandudno, with illustrations based on photographs taken by friend Peter Funge.

It is the first in a series of books about the Great Orme Kashmiri goats, who are often spotted walking the streets of the town and helping themselves to shrubs and garden plants.
