Synopsis
Old Mother Hubbard's dog, tired of lounging about, decides to take up sports. However, his attempts lead to chaos: he plays tennis with the laundry, gets covered in mud, and even shot-puts piglets out of their sty. This lively nonsense poem, filled with humour and mischief, is brought to life by John Yeoman's writing and Quentin Blake's illustrations.
