Review
Alexa Dretzke
Ruffles is an adorable dog who loves doing all the familiar doggy things like playing, chewing and fetching, but there is one thing he does not care for and that is his new red coat – ugh! How will he get it off? Thankfully, one thing he does like is puddles and playing in them with his best friend Ruby, who does wear her coat. Maybe, just maybe, she can encourage Ruffles to wear his.
As with his bestselling book Hugless Douglas, David Melling’s combination of charming illustrations and simple story once again proves to be a winner. Ruffles and the Red, Red Coat is sure to be a favourite with little readers 18 months and up.
