Eventually Hairy Maclary realises that he can't shake off Zachary Quack and they curl up together for a doze in the sun!

5.0 out of 5 stars An outstanding picture book for small children 25 Mar 2005
By ELH Browning TOP 1000 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Board book
My children and I are big Hairy Maclary fans, and I love most of the stories. This one is a particular favourite as it is so wonderfully evocative of a lazy summery afternoon. Hairy Maclary just wants to doze in the warm sun but a rather perky little duckling, Zachary Quack, follows him persistently because he wants him to play. This makes me smile as it reminds

me all too much of a younger child following an older one (or following a parent desperate for five minutes peace and quiet). Then Zachary Quack turns out to be a true friend when Hairy Maclary gets himself stuck in the river and the ending is a happy warm surprise. As with the majority of Lynley Dodds' stories, the language she uses is wonderful: pittery pattery, footle and frolic, skeddadles etc. There's lots of strikingly unusual vocabulary which makes me smile, my children enjoy it and pick up and use in no time, and it is used with great flair in her rhythmical rhyming text. Outstanding.

Format:Spiral-bound
Ms Dodd has an excellent command of ryhming and repition that is a big hit with children. At the tender age of 16months my daughter is already a big fan.

Buy this book - if not for your child it would make an excellent present.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, not just for the children but for the reader. 23 Mar 2001
By A Customer
Format:Spiral-bound
This book is excellent, it has an easy to follow story with Hairy Maclairy up to his usual tricks.

My two grandsons aged five and just starting to read on their own found it easy to follow the words and were soon joining in the story.

I enjoyed reading it to them and I'm sure it will become one of their favourites in no time.
