Meet Claude! He is a small, plump dog who wears a beret and a lovely red jumper. But Claude is no ordinary dog – he leads an extraordinary life! So when Mr and Mrs Shinyshoes set off for work one day, Claude decides it’s time for a trip to the city! With his best friend, Sir Bobblysock – who is a slightly bobbly, grubby sock – Claude goes in search of bright lights and excitement. And he certainly finds it! Together, they have tea in a café, go shopping and visit a museum. It is all very normal… until Claude accidentally foils a robbery and becomes a hero! A wonderfully funny reader-style book starring a quirky beret-clad hero, from a rising star of illustration, Alex T Smith.
