About this book
Hot Dog is having a lovely snooze on a comfy bread roll when he sees a bottle of ketchup approaching and realises he’s about to become… LUNCH!
Having no legs, making a run for it isn’t an option but Hot Dog won’t meet his fate quietly and formulates a (rather complicated) plan. After revising his next step to make the best use of his rolling abilities, Hot Dog thought he’d be out of danger but, bizarrely, it’s a squirt of mustard that finally saves him!
A quirky tale told in a delightful conversational style with deceptively simple illustrations that convey a sense of jeopardy as well as humour. Likely to induce fits of giggling in young readers.
