Cover Story
Our cover this month features Asterix. To mark the 25th anniversary of Asterix in Britain, Hodder &Stoughton are giving the books a brand new look and releasing two omnibus editions. We are most grateful to Hodder & Stoughton for their help in using this illustration by Albert Uderzo.
Dogger and Other Stories
Kevin Whately
Three stories for the under-5s. Kevin Whately adopts the right tone of authority and conspiracy for these typical Shirley Hughes domestic adventures. Every young child has a Dogger and will immediately identify with bereft Dave who loses his beloved floppy-eare toy dog at the school fair. Sound effects on the tape - like Dave crying over the lost Dogger - add to the appeal of the stories.
