With its handy strap and mini format, this cute little buggy book is just perfect for babies and toddlers on the go.

It has a lot going on and this is the most we have ever read in one sitting, so I knew she was hooked and looked forward to reading the next night. Look how despondent Mister Dog appeared when preparing his breakfast cereal, back before he had met the boy.She got really frustrated with me (even though she was projecting a persona as a free spirited hippy who should have had at least a clue of what I was talking about) and repeatedly asked me if he was my boy. Margaret Wise Brown died the same year this was published, and I can’t decide if she was an eccentric genius or a nut-job.

He may be a little rough around the edges but brave and clever minded Mr Dog is just the kind of friend you need when things go bad and you need a helping hand. When Mother Rabbit gets taken by a muddy man, he knows he has to rescue her for the sake of her children. Co-written with best-selling children’s author Steve Cole and illustrated throughout with beautiful black and white illustrations by Nikolas Ilic.

It begins with a depressed-looking mutt pouring milk on his cornflakes, dressing-gown gaping open at the front.

Mr Dogs kind and giving character, funny one-liners (and our absolute favourite when he named the bunnies). He has presented numerous programmes including the BBC’s Animal Park, Countryfile and Wild in Africa. Ross Welford introduces Time Travelling with a Tortoise, the sequel to Time Travelling with a Hamster, and a whole new time travel adventure! I have very much enjoyed my 7 year old son reading hilarious extracts from Mr Dog which arrived today.Williams was probably best known for illustrating the classic versions of Charlotte’s Web and the Little House on the Prairie series. The books are written by TV broadcaster and explorer Ben Fogle in collaboration with Adventure Duck author Steve Cole, with illustrations throughout by Nikolas Ili.
