Critics Review
And get ready for more sausage dog antics as Michael the Amazing Mind-Reading Sausage Dog faces a woof time on the trail of a dognapper in the second book of a laugh-out-loud series from author and illustrator team, Terrie Chilvers and Tim Budgen. These brilliant young fiction books are in a Blue Peter Book Club selected series that is delighting readers with its super-silly fun and a hilariously self-important doggy hero. Michael the Amazing Mind-Reading Sausage Dog has made it to Hollywood from small beginnings but life as a global su-paw-star isn’t working out quite like Michael had planned. With the ratings for his TV series, An Audience with Michael, at rock bottom, and his rival, Steve the Stunt Sausage Dog, getting his own show on another channel, the last thing he needs is his latest guest. Susan the Chocolate Labrador does a terribly boring peanut-balancing act but when she gets kidnapped, Michael jumps at the chance to increase his TV ratings and wow his fans by becoming not just a mind-reading sausage dog, but a detective mastermind as well… oh, and he should probably try and save Susan from her kidnappers too. Slapstick, pun-packed comedy doesn’t come better than this outlandish outing with a delectable diva doggy!
