'I'm here, let joy be unconfined!' Dougal

Dougal is our number one shaggy dog - his droll sense of humour and habit of saying exactly what he thinks making him a firm favourite with young and old alike. The main dog of the roundabout, Dougal is Florence's best friend but his bad habits - turning around in circles and an addiction to sugar cubes - constantly get him into trouble.

In this adorable, beautifully illustrated little book Dougal gets up to all sorts of mischief and has much to say about his friends in the process.

'Well, you're not big and bald are you darling?' Dougal

From teasing Brian the Snail to goading Ermintrude the Cow, enter Dougal's world and see for yourself how underneath his infamous rude streak, there's actually a sensitive little terrier at heart.
