Jamie & the Magic Whistle

The plot of this light-hearted story is so complicated that I won’t even try. Let’s say it concerns a vet (and Nicky Webb knows all about that) and children, potions for chicken pox and itchy powder, unwanted relations and a Best Behaved Dog competition. Rico Schacherl’s drawings share the wild style of humour in Helen Brain’s text. Lots of laughs, even if the dogs seem more kindly treated than the humans.
