The Hundred-Mile-an-Hour Dog Goes for Gold!

From The Hundred-Mile-an-Hour Dog to karate princesses and hot cross bottoms, there's a Jeremy Strong story to suit every child's sense of humour. Jeremy's readers range from 7 to teen, perfect for fans of Roald Dahl and Andy Stanton.

Guess what's coming to town! The Animal Games!

There'll be show-jumping for horses AND rabbits, and discus for dogs - so of course I have to enter Streaker. Mum says a CARROT is more obedient than my dog, but I think she can do it - Streaker can go for GOLD!

Award-winning Jeremy Strong has written many wacky books for children aged 7-teen, including My Dad's Got an Alligator and My Brother's Famous Bottom. Most of which are illustrated by Nick Sharratt, who also illustrates for Jacqueline Wilson! The Hundred-Mile-An-Hour Dog is back causing more chaos and getting into more trouble in The Hundred-Mile-An-Hour Dog, Lost! The Hundred-Mile-An-Hour Dog, Wanted! The Hundred-Mile-An-Hour Dog, and Christmas Chaos for the Hundred-Mile-An-Hour Dog - guaranteed to have you laughing your socks off!

Reviews

Katie Price's Perfect Ponies are a charming series of books that are perfect for every little girl aged five to ten years. The adorable pictures and adventures at the riding stables will keep girls occupied for hours!

—— Real People

They're ideal for all young horse fans.

—— Bury Free Press

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
