Claude in the Country
Come with Claude on a smashing adventure! These waggy tales are perfect for new readers, with illustrations on every page. As seen on TV - Claude is the star of his very own TV show!
Here comes Claude: an utterly adorable new young fiction character from talented young author/illustrator, Alex T. Smith.
A quiet walk in the country turns into a busy day on the farm when Claude ends up mucking out the pigs, feeding the chickens, and lassoing a fearsome bull!
An hilarious series for new readers and also great for sharing. There are two new books to come - Claude in the Spotlight (April 13) and Claude on the Slopes (Oct 13).
