It's aimed at children aged 9+ to read themselves but having said that, my 3 year old really enjoyed me reading it aloud and looking at the pictures - the comedy is simple and you can't help but giggle!
Blake couldn't stop laughing when we read about one of the dogs named poo-poo! Personally I liked Karen, the sausage dog best! And because Blake is going through a slight case of super-hero obsession, I was made to read the bit about super-dog swinging by a rope around her tummy to look like flying several million billion times!
The whole adventure is based around a quest for a hamburger!

This is fantastic for boys and girls alike and I'd say for any age group really!
Put a smile on a little person's face and enter my really easy comp to win a copy!

I think my LO would love the dog named Poo-Poo as she has a fine line in toilet humour!
