We can all agree that one fussy budgie is trouble enough, but four? FOUR?! Four fussy budgies could rule the world. The Little Big Book Club has a Hairy Maclary Learning time PDF sheet.It has suggestions on how to read the story, especially questions to ask before,during and after reading the story.

Although the books are designed to entertain young children, they are not intended as "early readers", as are, for example, the " Cat in the Hat" books by Dr. Seuss which have a very basic and largely phonic vocabulary. The Hairy Maclary books, despite their simple stories, introduce the listening child to some long but very expressive words, which are not part of the average preschooler vocabulary but must be understood by the child in the context in which they occur. For example, the noise made by a stranded cat and the excited dogs who discover it is described as a "cacophony". Has Hairy ever caused such mayhem? Thank goodness for Miss Plum, who once again steps in to save the day! We barely had a chance to know Ray, given all he did was wave a hat at Scarface Claw once. But, what a hat! What a wave! Don’t be a stranger, Ray. Short 5 minute film from NZ on screen http://www.nzonscreen.com/title/hairy-maclary-from-donaldsons-dairy-1997
