Product Details


Product Description

Review

"A delightful story about a boy who loses his favorite toy—a worn old dog—then discovers him for sale at his school fete."  —Financial Times


"Shirley Hughes is a national treasure."  —Philip Pullman, author, His Dark Materials series


"This warm-hearted slice of real life is as good as any of the Alfie books . . . Hughes's trademark illustrations capture, as always, the homey details of family life in a neighborhood where the kindness of others plays a large part in everyday events."  —Kirkus Reviews

Book Description

This is the endearing story of how Dogger, the much loved toy dog, was lost and finally found again. Winner of the Kate Greenaway Award when it first appeared in 1977, this timeless picture book has lost none of its appeal and is still a tale to which all children and their parents can relate.

5.0 out of 5 stars The older sister makes a sacrifice for her brother, Feb 8 2002
This book has an engaging story, and charming illustrations. And the way that the sister shows love for her brother rings true - children really act like this, when they're at their best. Any child who has a favorite stuffed toy will get caught up in the story, in the suspense, and in the happy ending. Shirley Hughes is a British author, and an observant reader can see that the setting doesn't look like America. This book,as well as other Shirley Hughes books, could be used for multi-cultural education, though the differences that can be found between Britain and America are subtle.

My family loves this book. Every time I read it, I almost cry when Bella helps her little brother get Dogger back. Wonderful, loving story!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favourite children's book !, April 10 1998
By 
I read dogger to my friend's children many years ago. To this day it remains a firm favourite with me, I even bought a copy for my nephew before he was born ! The pictures are bright and colourful, the text easy for the children to follow but most of all it is fun to read.

Dogger is tops in my opinion, and I have to confess I read it myself whenever I am feeling down ! Shirley Hughes puts the child back in me and for that I thank her most heartedly.
