Product Description

Bertie was a watchdog. He was just a very small one. But size isn't everything as one big and nasty burglar finds out in this knockabout comedy celebrating the triumph of the underdog! Illustrated with waggish humour by Arthur Robins, famous for his Seriously Silly Stories, this hilarious picture book is long in more ways than one! Printed in an unusual format, with fifty-six pages rather than the usual thirty-two, it'll keep children and their parents laughing looong after they've put it down!

I thought I should review this simply because my children (aged 3 and 5) found it hilarious - esp. when done with character voices. I got it from the library, we've read it at least twenty times, and I'm planning on buying it for one of my nephews. Well recommended.

Top dog! 12 Aug 2005
Format:Paperback
Well, I'm biased because my boy is called Bertie ... but this really is a super little book. It has a nice, quirky story with a good twist and is also written in a way that creates a good rhythm as you read, eg some final words of sentences on the next page and one spread without any words at all.

My daughter enjoys making all the police car's "nee-nah" noises which get louder as the book progresses making this book an ideal two-in-one bedtime story for children both sexes - and all names.

This story is brilliantly written and excellently illustrated. About a tiny little dog who tries to protect the house when a burglar breaks in. The little dog may be small and feable but he is very clever and tricks the burglar. I am a trainee teacher and found the children listening to the story roaring with laughter. It contains sounds which they can join in on, and repetitive language. It is suitable for 4 - 6 year olds. I know from experience this book is a hit and children wont let you put it down! A must have for any parent or primary school worker!
