First published in 1983 and still as good today. Written by Lynley Dodd, who is a New Zealander, this is the first in a series of books about the adventures of a scruffy dog ‘Hairy McClary’. Rhyming, catchy and comical with brilliant characters and plots. And just so you know a ‘dairy’ in New Zealand is a corner shop.

Mischievous illustrations and rhythmical text by award-winning Lynley Dodd ensure Hairy Maclary's huge popularity and lasting appeal.
