Description
Hairy Maclary causes trouble once again - he is just not in the mood for the Kennel Club's Obedience Class. He feels mischievous and mad, and not only does he scamper away but all his friends - Bottomley Potts, Muffin McLay, Hercules Morse and Schnitzel von Krumm - follow, 'galloping here, galloping there, rollicking, frolicking everywhere'!

Person
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.
