About this deal

I have a little boy and love reading to him, so this reading list will cover the classic (and new) children’s stories we’re enjoying together. The funny thing about reviewing toddler books is that you could easily use more words in the review than there are in the book itself! Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy has lots of friends, including Schnitzel von Krumm (with a very low tum! In this introductory book in the HAIRY MACLARY series, all the pooches-from big-as-a-horse Hercules Morse to Schnitzel von Krumm with the very low tum-meet their feline match.

Like most of Dodd's books, it is written in anapaestic verse, though it breaks into a more urgent trochaic form when the dogs encounter the cat.

The character Hairy Maclary made his first appearance in 1983 in the book titled Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy. The other thing about reading these books many many times is the mind starts to get a bit 'beautiful' about it. The Hairy Maclary books are picture books that are designed to be shared by an adult reader and a young child. As well as being a visual delight, these are some of the most rewarding books for children and adults to read out loud. Discover the lovable rogue, Hairy Maclary, and his four-footed friends in this hilarious classic tale.

Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy [1] first published in 1983, is the first and most well-known of a series of books by New Zealand author Lynley Dodd featuring Hairy Maclary. The fun names are silly and purposefully long, which is more enjoyable for children to hear and repeat. Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy became an instant favourite when it was published in 1983, and children today still love following Hairy's adventures.In the 2019 TVNZ series Goodnight Kiwi, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern read Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy. He's great and the rhymes in this rhyming book are easy to read and never feel like hard work to read again and again.
