Description

Claude and Sir Bobblysock go down on the farm for another madcap adventure. From the hilarious early chapter book series by award-winning author Alex T. Smith.

“Another strong entry in this delightfully odd series for picture book readers ready to dip a toe into chapter book waters.” ―School Library Journal

Claude and Sir Bobblysock head to the country where they help out down on the farm. Claude gathers chickens’ eggs, cleans the pigs, and even tries his hand at being a sheepdog. But when a fearsome bull interrupts the County Fair, Claude must think like a cowboy to save the day!

Quirky, delightfully odd, and positively surreal, Alex T. Smith’s illustrated early chapter book series promises giggle-filled bedtime reading and a laugh-out-loud option for readers transitioning from picture books to chapter books. Black and white illustrations throughout.
