Buy "Never Steal Wheels from a Dog (Adventures with Jeremy James)" on Amazon

Jeremy James is back again with some new adventures in the latest book in the series. Here he befriends a large friendly dog, starts swimming lessons, runs a car boot sale, as well as involving himself in various other new happenings. Told with gentle humour, this book is good not only for reading aloud to young children, but also for slightly older ones to read on their own. Those already familiar with Jeremy James will welcome the latest book; those who meet him for the first time will not be disappointed. Confusingly, the illustration on page 9 shows Jeremy James with his left hand stuck to his head, whereas the story tells us that it is his right hand that gets stuck.
