Product Description
Product Description
"Down in the town by the butcher's shop door, sat Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy" Hairy Maclary, the cheekiest dog in town, is waiting for a tasty bone from the butcher. He trots off home with his prize, planning on devouring it in private. But he reckons without the procession of his friends, from Bottomley Potts who's covered in spots to Schnitzel von Krumm with very low tum. But Hairy Maclary takes them on such a circuitous route that one by one he loses them, until he's alone at last to go home with all of his bone.

Hairy MacLary has a bone which other dogs desire. He goes under, over, through etc etc to shake off his competitors.
Excellent - my 22-month-old loves it. What better recommendation could you have?
Format:Paperback
If you don't know about Hairy Maclary then start with HM from Donaldson's Dairy , but if you are already a fan :
We are working through the H.M. books - sampling them at the library before buying.
Both 5mth old son, who beams to the books he enjoys (not sure what his criteria are of course), and us parents enjoyed this story.
Probably preferred the original story and 'Shoo' more, but this is still probably one we'll buy.
