Monty, the Dog Who Wears Glasses

Colin West
(HarperCollinsChildren'sBooks)
978-0006736813, RRP £3.50, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "Jets - Monty, the Dog Who Wears Glasses" on Amazon

Another amusing addition to the excellent 'Jets' series. As well as wearing glasses, Monty has other human traits: greed, curiosity and an endearing incompetence in carrying out his good intentions. The combination of clear print, humorous direct narrative and supporting cartoons make this an ideal book for the beginner reader to enjoy with confidence.
