When dastardly Cruella De Vil steals a whole litter of Dalmatian puppies to make a new fur coat, the puppies’ parents, Pongo and Missus, lose no time in mounting a daring rescue mission. Will they be in time to thwart Cruella’s evil scheme, or have they bitten off more than they can chew?
THE STARLIGHT BARKING
There’s a Dalmatian in Number 10 Downing Street. But when strange things start happening, Pongo and his family are in a race against time to save London … and the world.
