Product Description
A board book editon of this bestelling Hairy Maclary story. Hairy Maclary is looking for some peace and quiet for his afternoon doze. But everywhere he goes he's followed by an irrepressible yellow duckling, Zachary Quack, who wants to footle and frolic and play.

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 "Esther-Lou" (Kingston Bagpuize, Oxon) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved by All the Family, 4 Mar 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Hairy Maclary and Zachary Quack (Picture Puffins) (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
This review is from: Hairy Maclary and Zachary Quack (Picture Puffins) (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.
