Illustrated by Peter Cross
A super book, this, and one that deserves to become a classic in the upper infant library. In a new format for Walker (very small, sturdy, square, beautifully printed on high quality paper) these four little stories of Dudley are literate, amusing and full of things to talk about. I wasn't very impressed by the previous Dudley story, Dudley Bakes a Cake, which seemed to mismatch writer and artist. This time, however, the two complement each other wonderfully and the text and pictures tell the witty stories in perfect tandem.
