What is Monty, the Dog Who Wears Glasses about?

When Simon Sprod gives Monty a pair of glasses, the dog becomes the talk of the neighbourhood—but his eyesight is not his only problem. Monty is far more interested in chocolate biscuits, comfy chairs and walnut whips than in behaving sensibly. Whenever he spots a tasty treat or a tempting place to rest, trouble is never far away. With Simon trying to keep him out of mischief, Monty’s funny adventures show that even an ordinary dog can cause extraordinary chaos.
