This book, Hairy Maclary from Donaldson’s Dairy, is now famous the world over and the 20 titles in the Hairy Maclary and friends series have now sold more than six million copies worldwide. It was thirty years ago that a small black dog stepped out of the imagination of author and illustrator Lynley Dodd and onto the pages of a picture book. This is not only a marvellous story, but a superb aid for early learning and literacy development.

Hear the barking dogs and the ferocious yowl of Scarface Claw, all part of the interactive experience, giving children and parents’ hours of fun. You can even colour in pages of the story and record your own voice. Run your fingers over the text to hear the story and touch any word to hear and see it spoken and spelt. Young children will love to join in making all the different noises. The noise is terrible - so terrible that it draws Hairy Maclary and all his friends from Donaldson's Dairy to investigate. Scarface Claw, the biggest cat in the neighbourhood, is out exploring when he gets stuck up a tree.
