Harry By The Sea

Harry and the family have gone to the beach but it's too sunny and he's one hot dog! There's nowhere else for him to get some shade than under a pile of seaweed! The only problem is that now everyone thinks he's a sea monster and he can't find his family.

This is the third classic story from the Harry series and is as fresh and funny as when it was first written.

Reviews

Harry eclipses all dogs of fiction for the very young

—— Dorothy Butler , Babies Need Books

Every bookshelf should have Harry By the Sea

—— Junior

I can't recommend Traction Man Meets Turbo Dog highly enough . . . A witty and surreal picture book that's suitable for both reading aloud and first attempts at reading alone. It's slightly subversive in a Toy Story way, but is absolutely and utterly British. Don't miss it

—— thebookbag.co.uk

Another brilliant picture book from Mini Grey, whose sense of humour and adventure, love of the language of the toy box and understanding of childhood fantasy is matched by her pictorial invention and a skill at characterisation that can make even a scrubbing brush appealing

—— Books for Keeps

A brilliant and playful parody of an action-hero drama by quirky writer Mini Grey

—— Junior

A glorious antidote to boneheaded machismo . . . and a visual feast of wit and boundless imagination. A gem

—— Carousel

The retro superhero Traction Man is back for another madcap domestic adventure . . . All the excellent details in the pictures make this a hugely entertaining story from award-winning author/illustrator
