Spy Dog: Brainwashed is the eighth book in the Spy Dog adventures - now a number 1 bestselling series! Perfect for readers of 7+ and young animal fans.

Criminals daren't step a paw out of line when Lara, the spy dog, is around. Grrrr....

Lara decides to go to a new gym with Mr and Mrs Cook - she has a bit of a pooch paunch to shift. But she makes a shocking discovery!

Harriet Hawk, the evil gym owner, is brainwashing everyone into becoming an army of criminals, robbing banks and raiding jewellers all over the country. But there's an even more dastardly masterplan afoot - to use the hypnotised grownups to kidnap the country's school children!

Lara and the pups must stop her and save a brainwashed Mr and Mrs Cook - and unsuspecting Sophie, Ben and Oliie - before it's too late!

Reviews

We love Lara!

—— Kraze Club

An imaginative, creative feast!

—— Radio Times

Lots of children would like this book as it is very exciting and shows the characters' emotions very clearly. It is a nice book to read and tells you a lot about people and horses.

—— Molly and Ellie Lucas (aged nine) , Step Ahead Magazine

Katie captured the judges' imagination with her dreamy illustrations

—— Guardian

There's something genially old-fashioned about it all. Otto endures hardship and adventure (including the brush-off he receives from a pair of alley cats) as he flees his old existence and finds new sources of companionship. In this case, the animal adrift ends up with fellow story characters as well as with human readers, who, as they will in real life too, want to keep Otto around

—— Pamela Paul , The New York Times

Katie's illustrations are full of space, gentle colour and apparent simplicity. She also has a real way with drawing animals - Otto is a very handsome bear, a bear that you'll want to hug and make space for on your bookshelves
