Oh! If Only...
Publisher: Anderson Press
If only the boy had stayed at home he wouldn’t have met the dog with a ball! This is the first of many 'if onlies.' As the pair plays football, the ball bounces down the hill with the dog in hot pursuit, straight into the queen’s birthday parade. Her horses are spooked, her palace ruined and her birthday cake destroyed.
There is worse to come - when the dog catches the ball he returns it to the boy in front of all the world’s TV cameras. He is the most embarrassed boy in the whole wide world. But he is still really glad he met such a great dog.
An action-packed, humorous story with bright and lively illustrations.
