5.0 out of 5 stars Crackers, Cacti and a talking dog., 2 Sep 2003
By Maudie (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
It was absolutly hilarious from start to finish, like the previous one "The Giggler Treatment." In it Rover the dog takes over from Rudolph ,and with help from the children, delivers all the presents all over the world.
All the way through there are some bizzare chapters about talking crackers and cacti which make no sense what so ever but they made me laugh until I heard the next one.
I would recomend this book to anyone aged between 5-105.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ho Ho Ho!, 21 Oct 2005
Zzap!! This is a great book, no question. It's Christmas eve and Rudolph's gone on strike (typical). Santa sends one of his elves to go and fetch Rover, top-notch hound, ready for anything. After grudgingly agreeing to pull the famous sleigh, Rover's in deep water. How can they deliver all the presents before morning?
Well you'll just have to read the book to find out, won't you?
Brilliant jokes, wisecracks, gags, and comical words and phrases to keep you going throughout the book. 5/5, 10/10, 18743323423423525236456457547/18743323423423525236456457547.
I also recommend the prequel 'The Giggler Treatment' and the sequel 'The Meanwhile Adventures.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fun to read together, 22 April 2008
By Lise Martino "groovy mamma" (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a histerically funny book to read, with so many little querky features. My son could not put it down! Roddy Doyle's uncompromising humour does not patronise, and makes it all the more fun to read together.
Brilliant!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ho Ho Gurgle
Wow! This is the first Roddy Doyle 'Childrens' book I have read. The gurgle comes from the fact that I read it from cover to cover in the bath (1 bath). Read more
