Dodsworth series by Tim Egan


Meet Dodsworth and Duck- two friends travelling around the world. In their lastest adventure, Dosworth and Duck travel to London where they see double-decker buses, visit Big Ben and meet the queen! What a great time-until Duck goes missing! Will Dodsworth be able to track his little friend down? You will laugh, smile and even learn a little bit about London in this adorable story from Tim Egan. Also read Dodsworth in New York and Dodsworth in Paris- both just as funny and enjoyable. I love this new series and recommend for all beginner readers and their adults reading along!
