An exciting new collaboration between the Roald Dahl Funny Prize-winning author Peter Bently and the incredibly talented illustrator John Bond!
Dogs come in all kinds of colours and sizes
But when no one’s looking they put on DISGUISES.
A joyful peek into the crazy antics of all sorts of dogs in disguise! Dressing up in clothing they find at home, these adventurous pooches blend into the crowd at all the places dogs aren’t allowed, like the store, the cinema and the swimming pool! But not all of their disguises go quite to plan, with hilarious results . . .
From schnauzers in trousers to cosmonaut cockapoos, this jaunty rhyming text from hugely popular, award-winning author, Peter Bently, with brilliantly witty illustrations from John Bond, creator of the Mini Rabbit books, will have children howling with laughter!
‘A rambunctious rhyming picture-book romp ideal for fans of the “Oi!” books, full of ingenious pooches and some truly outrageous rhymes (think schnauzers in trousers and shih-tzus doing ju-jitsu). Bond’s trademark wide, staring eyes and bright block colours perfectly complement Bently’s bouncing text.’ Guardian
‘This gleeful, absurd and beautifully drawn book should be on every Christmas list’ The Big Issue
'Laugh-out-loud funny!' The Independent
‘An extremely well-crafted and fun story time book that will have children asking for repeat reads again and again.’ BookTrust
Praise for Mini Rabbit Not Lost:
“Mixes silliness with a Jon Klassen-like note of piquant peril . . . and an unexpected final twist make(s) for great appeal.” The Guardian
‘John Bond brilliantly captures the single-mindedness of small children…little readers will certainly want seconds.’
The Observer
“Adorable . . . a really sweet story with absolutely stunning illustrations” BookTrust
Praise for Mini Rabbit Must Help:
“Lively colourful illustrations . . . A Charming and witty book” BookTrust
A fantastically funny rhyming story, perfect for dog lovers!
Peter studied languages at Oxford University, England, and lives in Devon with his wife Lucy and their two children. After a career as a non-fiction editor, he turned to writing for children soon after the birth of his son Theo. Egmont published his very first children's book, the bestselling A Lark in the Ark, which was shortlisted for the Red House award and the inaugural BookTrust Book of the Year awards.
