5/20/2023 0 Comments Lynley doddsThe clever rhymes and colourful language make these books a joy to read aloud with lines like “Hairy Maclary felt bumptious and bustly, bossy and bouncy and frisky and hustly" and the rhythm and repetition encourages children to join in too. The success of the books lies in the wonderful, sing-song rhythm and verse along with the vivid illustrations of dogs and cats. Written and illustrated by award-winning New Zealand author Lynley Dodd, this series of twenty picture books has been around for thirty five years and is still going strong. Hairy Maclary is a bouncy, scruffy and mischievous dog whose cheeky adventures with his lovable animal friends (and enemies!) enrapture toddlers, pre-schoolers and their parents.
