Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy by Lynley Dodd by Lynley Dodd

Description: The iconic first Hairy Maclary book, which introduces Hercules Morse, Bitzer Maloney, Muffin McLay, Bottomley Potts, Schnitzel von Krumm and of course the famous Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy. The six dogs go out for a walk, but little do they know that Scarface Claw, the toughest tom in town, is lurking round the next corner. Lynley Dodd graduated from the Elam School of Art in Auckland with a diploma in Fine Arts, majoring in sculpture. She went on to teach art before taking a break to start a family. She began to work as a freelance illustrator and collaborated with author Eve Sutton on My Cat Likes To Hide in Boxes. There was no looking back as Lynley went on to write and illustrate her own books for children. Exuberant artwork and bouncy rhymes come together perfectly in books like Slinky Malinki and Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy. As well as being a visual delight, these are some of the most rewarding books for children and adults to read out loud. It comes as no surprise that, as a child, she adored Dr Seuss because of his 'crazy sounds and the fact that he took such liberties with the English language.' Other favourite authors included A A Milne and the fairy tales of The Grimm Brothers and Hans Christian Andersen. Today, Lynley is a big fan of Quentin Blake 'because of his humour and very clever art work.'Features:Weight (gm): 325 Country of Publisher: New Zealand Height (mm): 172 Place of Publisher: Auckland Spine depth (mm): 21 Width (mm): 127 Format Type: Board book Publisher Name: Penguin Group (NZ) Page Numbers: 34 Theme Name: Picture storybooks
