Hairy Maclary.... The dog isn't called Blitzer Maloney

[5FootMama]

He's called BITZER Maloney.
I have been reading this as Blitzer for about 8 years until my friend queried this the other day 😬

Whoops!!

My dd told me yesterday her cat phobia comes from Scarface Claw. I might have read that book a little too enthusiastically 😁

The corner dairy

Love those books, the illustrations are perfect and the language is so well and playfully used.

Stop this shemozzle, this hullabaloo,
Scarper, skedaddle, be off with you, shoo!

I always read it as Blitzer too op!😂

I love these books. My mind was blown when I found out that a "dairy" in New Zealand is a shop like a convenience store / corner shop!! I'd always pictured Hairy Maclary in Donaldson's dairy surrounded by milk churns

Oh my god is that true?? I thought that was why he was always buggering off, to hide from the cows!
