Author:Kes Gray

The BRAND NEW laugh-out-loud new Daisy adventure, from bestselling author of the Oi Frog series, Kes Gray.

Here comes trouble!

Daisy and her class are so excited when their new school nature garden is unveiled.

But the trouble with their nature garden is, there's not very much nature in it.

There are NO:

Birds

Butterflies

Grizzly Bears

Wolverines

If there's one thing Daisy HATES it's waiting. Especially waiting for nature to appear. Luckily, she's going camping with Gabby, and will find LOTS of nature to bring back.

Only, the trouble with nature is, it's really hard to control...

Reviews

A waggish tale with a serious (and timely) theme

—— Kirkus

This mash-up of farce, fable, and slapstick ultimately delivers a profound and relevant message

—— Publishers Weekly

Dog lovers will especially “LOVE” this, and readers who can’t get enough can follow the real-life Plum in the author’s blog.

—— Kirkus Reviews

I think it is a perfect book for sharing and helping younger children understand that even if they do sometimes get up to mischief and get told off they will still be loved. I’m not sure that it is possible for any child (or adult) not to totally fall in love with Plumdog by the end of the story.

—— Book Lover Jo Wordpress

Wording is perfect for a 3-6 year old and illustrations are engaging and relay the exuberant and love-worthy Plum.

If Love Is My Favorite Thing isn’t the most fitting title for a book about the devotion of domesticated dogs, I don’t know what is.

—— Julia Danielson , Kirkus Reviews

Clark exuberantly captures Plum’s zest for life, whether it’s playing with the kids next door or causing trouble

—— Publishers Weekly

All ends well for Plummie in a picture book that’s just right for a day that celebrates love, even if you’re in the doghouse.
