Summary/Back cover:
All is quiet on the farm - until Dog starts to SNORE! While he snores noisily through the night, the other animals can get no sleep. Whatever can they do about Dog?

Review:
'Snore! - A noisy night for dozy dog' is about a farmyard of animals all trying to get a nice quiet nights sleep, however the snoring dog is keeping them all awake. They try all sorts of things to get him to stop snoring, without any luck. Filled with snoring and animal sounds, it's a fun book to both read and listen too.

Our family absolutely loves this book. My girls have had fun giggling at the snoring noise as well as trying to imitate all the sounds from just over 12months, even Dad gets in on the fun of making the sounds with this book. The illustrator does a great job with the expressions of the various animals, such delightful illustrations. You can't help but smile with this great read and is guaranteed to put your little ones in an upbeat mood. Written with such energy and humour we've had to keep this as an afternoon rather than bedtime book, otherwise they would practise animal and snoring sounds all night and not sleep!

My rating: 5 out of 5. Definitely one of our all-time favourites!
