Lift-the-flap, hide-and-seek fun with mischievous Hairy Maclary and all his friends!

Have you seen Hairy Maclary? Where is he hiding? Lift the flaps to see if you can spot the raggedy rascal and his rollicking gang!

Is he having a scratch in the strawberry patch? No, that's Bitzer Maloney. Is he taking a bath at the side of the path? No, that's Muffin McLay. Babies and toddlers will have loads of fun spotting the clues in the illustrations and lifting the flaps to discover which of the characters it is.

This delightful board book with sturdy cardboard flaps showcases the famous animal characters from Lynley Dodd's bestselling series of picture books. From page to page, Hairy Maclary's gang is hidden behind a variety of objects for little fingers to move aside, until, at last, Hairy Maclary's hiding place is discovered!

Read all the Hairy Maclary and Friends books by Lynley Dodd!

About the Author

Lynley Dodd graduated from the Elam School of Art in Auckland with a diploma in Fine Arts, majoring in sculpture. She went on to teach art before taking a break to start a family. She began to work as a freelance illustrator and collaborated with author Eve Sutton on My Cat Likes To Hide in Boxes. There was no looking back as Lynley went on to write and illustrate her own books for children. Exuberant artwork and bouncy rhymes come together perfectly in books like Slinky Malinki and Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy. As well as being a visual delight, these are some of the most rewarding books for children and adults to read out loud. It comes as no surprise that, as a child, she adored Dr Seuss because of his 'crazy sounds and the fact that he took such liberties with the English language.' Other favourite authors included A A Milne and the fairy tales of The Grimm Brothers and Hans Christian Andersen. Today, Lynley is a big fan of Quentin Blake 'because of his humour and very clever art work.'
