"Fast-paced illustrated fiction packed with poochy puns, a cast of hilarious hound characters, and crazy canine detective capers."
Snapping at the hairy heels (paws?!) of Michael the Amazing Mind-Reading Sausage Dog, Terrie Chilvers’ Michael the Incredible Super-Sleuth Sausage Dog sees the marvellous mind- reading mutt add to his career portfolio. Merrily voiced by Michael himself, it’s a blast of barking mad humour and doggy detective adventure, with Tim Budgen’s illustrations oozing character and charm.
Just as Michael’s life as a Holly-woof su-paw-star begins to go somewhat awry, a guest booked for his show — Susan the Chocolate Labrador — is dognapped. Seeing an opportunity to boost his poor TV ratings, and add an extra string to his bow as a notable detective, Michael resolves to find Susan, ever-confident in his abilities.
The road Michael bounds along is strewn with pitfalls, misunderstandings and many, many distractions, not least when it comes to food. The question is, will Michael make a dog’s dinner of the case, or will his detective pedigree shine through?!
Pitched for independent readers who are ready to tackle longer stories, Michael the Incredible Super-Sleuth Sausage Dog also comes recommended as a fun book to read aloud — much pleasure can be had doing the doggy voices and making the most of all the poochy puns!
