What is Harry Maclary's Rumpus At The Vet about?
Hairy Maclary is waiting at the vet with a crowd of sniffly, snuffly pets. Everyone is trying to stay calm, but when Cassie the cockatoo gives Hairy’s fur a cheeky tweak, the quiet waiting room erupts. Paws scramble, bodies tangle and jaws clatter as the animals tumble into a hilarious rumpus. Can the vet restore order before the whole place falls apart? Told in lively rhyme, this playful animal adventure celebrates mischief, surprise and the fun of making a terrible to-do.
