Hairy Maclary's Bone first published in 1984, is the second of the popular series of books by New Zealand author Lynley Dodd featuring Hairy Maclary.[1] His adventures are usually in the company of his other dog friends. His arch-enemy is the belligerent soft grey tabby named Scarface Claw.
Written for pre-school children, with rhythmic, rhyming text, it has become a best-selling bedtime storybook in New Zealand and Australia.[2][3][4]
In this book, Hairy Maclary is given a tasty bone from the town butcher Samuel Stone and must get back to Donaldson's Dairy with it while fending off his five doggie friends - Hercules Morse the English Mastiff, Muffin McLay the Old English Sheepdog, Bottomley Potts the Dalmatian, Bitzer Maloney the Greyhound and Schnitzel Von Krumm the Dachshund.[5]
