Claude in the Country

About Claude in the Country

When Mr. and Mrs. Shineyshoes leave for the day, their dog Claude and his sock puppet sidekick, Sir Bobblysock, are off to the countryside! From Alex T. Smith’s hilariously illustrated early chapter book series.

Claude and Sir Bobblysock arrive at a farm, where they pitch in with the daily chores. 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 put on his cowboy hat to reign it in. What a wonderful day!

Quirky, delightfully odd, and positively surreal, Alex T. Smith’s beloved Claude series promises fits of giggles for readers transitioning from picture books to chapter books. Two-color illustrations throughout.
