Product Information

Miklavčič, Alja, Jana Kolarič (in Slovenian), Društvo slovenskih pisateljev , retrieved 16 August 2017 Bitzer Maloney is the only other member of Hairy Maclary‘s gang that, like Hairy Maclary, is of mixed-breed parentage. With his large bright eyes, long legs, finely boned thin frame and snaky tail, he is definitely part greyhound. Hercules Morse is an Old English Mastiff and, 'As big as a horse' just about says it all. Hercules is mostly a sleepy gentle giant. He is loyal to his friends and kind and gentle. Like most of Dodd's books, it is written in anapaestic verse, though it breaks into a more urgent trochaic form when the dogs encounter the cat.

Questions for Philosophical Discussion » Summary This story presents various questions regarding the philosophy of human nature, specifically the philosophy of emotion and feelings.Although Hairy Maclary and his five companions were all different shapes and sizes, and all very different dogs with very different lives, they all responded the same way when they saw the cat. Hairy Maclary leads all the other dogs in the neighbourhood to investigate the terrible caterwauling created when the tough cat Scarface Claw is caught up in a tree.” (Catalogue)
