Two fun adventures of Claude the dog and his best friend Sir Bobblysock. I must say that Sir Bobblysock is my favorite part of this book; he is both a sock and quite bobbly as well and grubby and smells a bit like cheese. What's not to like? Great fun & silliness ensue as the friends venture out on their first trip to the city one day and a trip to the hospital the next. I'm eagerly looking forward to more Claude books in the future.
