Product Description

Review

'(Hairy Maclary is) a child's best introduction to books' The Times 'The rhyming verse is delightful to read aloud and soon learned by heart' Independent


Product Description

"Sniffles and snuffles and doses of flu - itches and stitches and tummyache too ..." Hairy Maclary is waiting to see the vet with lots of other pets. Then something happens to turn the waiting room into a kerfuffling scramble of paws, a tangle of bodies and a jumble of jaws ...what can be the matter? Another rumbustious, rhyming romp with Hairy Maclary (from 'Donaldson'd Dairy!') and friends!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful building story, with rhymes and silly dogs..., 16 Feb 2003
By K. Watson (Australia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Lynley Dodd is a writer/illustrator from New Zealand who has been publishing for some time, but her Hairy Maclary books have had the most success. "Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy" is a dear little black dog who gets into all sorts of trouble. In this story he goes out for a walk and meets up with lots of other dogs (as he meets each one, their name is added to the list: Schnitzel von Crumb - with a very low tum, Bottomly Potts - all covered in spots, ... with Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy) Finally (to their horror) they all come across Scarface Claw: the roughest, toughest tomcat in town.

It's a lot of fun, and any parent or children's librarian will soon have the whole thing memorised from constant reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!!, 1 Dec 2006
By Mr. M. M. Mcdonnell - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is an absolute must for every child.....and parent for that matter.

I first read Hairy Maclary to my little brother over 15 years ago and have been given it as a gift for my 1 year old. She thinks that it is fab and loves Scarface Claw - The toughest Tom in Town. The rythmn of the book is great and I have to agree with everyone else who says that it is perfect for bedtime.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent fun for a small child., 24 Feb 2002
By A Customer
Another excellent book from Lynley Dodd. My 2 year old grand daughter loves these books. There are endless fits of giggles over the rhyming lines (such as a gnu with the flu and a chimp with a limp) and you can make up more silly ones as well. She never tires of having these read and re-read to her at bedtime. More please!
