Reader Reviews:
Stopped us going mad (0/0 people found this helpful)
My 10 month old has this which we read to him in bits and the board book version of the first story, Hairy Maclary from Donaldsons Dairy.
He squeals when we get it out of the bookshelf and he always gets his board book version (which lives in his toy box) out and opens it onto the page which introduces 'Scarface Claw' the cat.
Good for recurring characters, great rhyming and use of words. Entertaining for us too.
PS A dairy is a New Zealand corner store.
Excellent book choice for younger readers (0/0 people found this helpful)
I have just bought this book for my 3 year old following the recommendations on this site and he absolutely loves it! I cannot recommend it enough - every night he begs for more stories from Hairy Maclary that I am going to buy even more books from this author.
The stories are exciting and fast paced and introduce some fun characters like Muffin Mclay and Scarface Claw. I have to aqdmit I was slightly sceptical about whether my son would like these but he loves them and I appreciated the reviews made by other people as it made me buy the book in the first place.
My 15 month old daughter's fave book (3/3 people found this helpful)
There is absolutely no contest at bed time, this book is picked up and put on my lap everytime. Rhymes are so important for tots, alot of recent studies are prooving this now and this is such a fun book to read even if it is 5 times a night! I can't recommend it enough really, if you get it neither you or your child will be disapointed!
Hairy wins the day! (17/17 people found this helpful)
As a year 2 teacher I read a huge variety of books to my class, but Hairy Maclary has always been the most popular. Great rhymes, stories, and pictures make for an easy and jaunty read, and the kids simply love joining in with the memorable repetitions. "Rumpus at the Vets" wins out as the most requested.
Absolutely Fantastic Book (12/12 people found this helpful)
This is my 2 year old son's favourite bedtime book. The stories are fantastic and the rhymes are great. Would definately recommend this book especially if you like dogs.
