Smelly Louie

Louie is not a happy dog. He has just had a bath and, instead of his usual distinctive whiff, he has the aroma of roses and apple blossom. In his quest to recreate his 'own special smell', he delves into bins, rolls in sludge and dives into a pond. Inevitably, once home, there is only one place for him - the bath, and that sweet smell of roses and apple blossom!
Rayner, a Kate Greenaway medal winner, has created another engaging character and her style catches perfectly this engaging, messy mutt.
