From a chaotic trip to the vet in Hairy Maclary's Rumpus at the Vet, to a starry turn in Hairy Maclary's Showbusiness, and Slinky Malinki's cheeky catflap capers, every story is built around Lynley Dodd's trademark rolling rhyme and repetition. This sing-song text is wonderfully satisfying to read aloud, helping children predict rhyming words and build early phonological awareness. Dodd's warm, expressive illustrations bring each character vividly to life. Originally created in New Zealand and now firm favourites in UK homes and classrooms, these titles have introduced generations of children to Hairy Maclary's world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFifteen full-length Hairy Maclary and Slinky Malinki paperback stories in one set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRhyming, rhythmic text that supports early literacy and read-aloud confidence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharming, detailed illustrations that spark conversation and imagination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for bedtime routines, classroom libraries and quiet time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA ready-made gift set for birthdays, Christmas or new readers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new condition, great value way to own the full set together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLynley Dodd is a much-loved New Zealand author and illustrator, best known for creating Hairy Maclary and his cast of neighbourhood animal friends.
