Amazon.co.uk Review
This Big Book edition of Shirley Hughes' classic picture book is ideal for sharing with groups of children.

Dogger is the endearing story of how Dave's beloved Dogger was lost and found. Winner of the 1977 Kate Greenaway Medal, Dogger is a timeless classic which, in simple words and detailed pictures, shows the distress the loss of a toy causes a child, as well as the reality of family life. Filled with humour and Shirley Hughes' deft touch, this is a book for young readers to tackle by themselves, as well as a delight to read aloud.

A regular size edition is also available.

5 out of 5 stars Gorgeous   July 9, 2008
My nearly three year old boy insists on 'the Dogger book' every single night. And it is one of the few on his shelf that I dont mind reading again and again. Its a lovely story with a generous dose of drama and suspense - and a morality tale thrown in for good measure. The pictures are fantastic - lots of new little details to find with every read.

Highly recommended...



5 out of 5 stars A true children's book   August 11, 2007

This is the book that stands out from my younger years. I had it - we read it at school - my friends owned it. Shirley Hughes definitely knows what she's doing when it comes to writing for little children. It is original, it is sympathetic, and it is a cute story. Without a doubt, I recommend it!

This is such a lovely story I would recommend it to all teachers and parents of young children. The children in every class I have taught in have loved this book. The pictures are beautiful and the story is fantastic. It helps children to examine a number of issues and dilemmas at their own level. I would recommend it as suitable for 4-7 year olds.

The story of Dogger is both movinig and inspirational about a child who has lost his beloved toy.

This story can help other children who have for exmaple have lost toys or a pet to cope and deal with the situation.

A book for all!!!

What a lovely book, I bought it for my daughter when she was small and she adored it, now I'm looking for the hardback version for her now she is nearly seventeen. She has asked for it to keep and to give to her children one day.
