books by Lynley Dodd, including: Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy,Hairy Maclary's Bone,Hairy Maclary and the Rumpus at the Vet, Scattercat!, Slinki Malinki Opens the Door, and Zachary Quack
These books and many others by Lynley Dodd are meant for the pre-school or kindergarten aged person, but I know many adults who adore them as well...she writes with such fun language that everyone is hooked. Told in poem form, Hairy Maclary and his friends (whether dog or cat) have a blast as they blaze through the neighborhood doing only things dogs and cats can do. The illustrations are phenomenal and should be discussed as you read through the stories. You won't be able to read just one!
