Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy | Lynley Dodd
6 posts | 14 read | 1 to read
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 Donaldon'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.

Who doesn't love this book? Our 3 year old decided this was the book she was going to bring to preschool this past week for family literacy day - and I may have been more excited than she was. A fun rhyming book about Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy and all the other dogs around town.

Best part of my surprise desk shift today was having to search for Hairy Maclary who went missing from his spot in the picture books - one of the library‘s school holiday activities was a mini scavenger hunt - had to find the picture to reveal the word that made up a book quote…

There should be a function on Goodreads that adds 1 book to your reading goal for every 10 children's books read. This is just what I have been presented with today 😂

GatheringBooks i definitely count my picturebook reads as a legitimate read on goodreads. a lot are far more complex than could ever be imagined. strong advocate here of picturebooks! :) 6y
laurieluna @GatheringBooks I counted the tagged book, because it was a bit longer and the poetry quite complex, but I feel like I would be cheating if I included The Dinosaur Who Pooped A Planet 😂 6y
Sophoclessweetheart My little one is the same. One story leads to ten. Xx 6y

laurieluna @Wanderingwithwords yep. He sees I'm reading and starts pulling books out! I would read so much more if I didn't stop so much to read for him, not that I mind! 😊 xx 6y
CarolynM Hairy Maclary was a huge favourite in our house. The animated series is pretty terrific too 6y
laurieluna @CarolynM didn't know they'd made a series! Shall have to find it on youtube 😊 6y
Sophoclessweetheart Same here. Usually she‘ll grab a favourite and sit beside me and read to herself but 60% of the time it‘s mummy reading to her. I don‘t mind at all though, I love when we read together x 6y
kezzlou85 My girls loved hairy maclary. 💜 6y
RadicalReader @miralunasbooknook that seriously should be a conversion because everything else has one books shouldn‘t be excluded 6y
