About the Author
Lynley Dodd is one of New Zealand's best known and best loved authors of children's books. In a career spanning four decades she has produced more than thirty original picture books (creating both the story and the illustrations) published around the world in multiple languages. In a recent review for The Sapling, New Zealand librarian and reviewer of children's books Simie Simpson wrote, "Fostering a love of language since 1983, Hairy Maclary is almost compulsory reading for babies and toddlers. Reading the lovely Zachary Quack Minimonster and Wake Up, Bear, I was reminded at how delightful and clever Lynley Dodd's books are. They are full of joy and rhythm, relatable and perfectly pitched for their intended audience."
