Hairy Maclary - Day 4

Hello Blogging world! One of the most popular children's stories written in the 1983s is Hairy Maclary from Donaldson Dairy. It was written by a kiwi women named Lynley Dodd. It is now sold in dozens of countries around the world, the story features a small dog called " Hairy ." For this activity we had to use the sentence starter from the start of the book and we had to finish it off with our own twist. This story has to be at least 8-10 sentences. Here is my story.
Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy.
Out of the gate and off for a walk went Hairy Maclary from Donaldson’s Dairy. Hairy Maclary found a fairy and said he was from the dairy. Following Hairy came the poodle the poodle just wanted to doodle! Hairy Maclary said he was the Dairy so the Poodle followed along too. Soon the sky turned to fog Hairy found a Bulldog, Hairy introduced the Bulldog by saying Hairy is from the Dairy. Hairy Maclary went to a farm and found a pig that was eating figs. Hairy Maclary went to the house to see the farmer the farmer was from Donaldson's Dairy!
The End!


From making this blog post I learnt who made the book of Hairy Maclary. It was hard to think about the sentences because the story usually rhymes so I tried my best to rhyme it sometimes. I hope you have enjoyed my story! Please feel free to leave a comment! Bye! Bye! Blogging world!

    Hi Amie.

    You are such an active blogger and I love reading your posts. They are always colourful and include some really descriptive language. This one particularly I really enjoyed reading your story that you created including some fabulous rhymes. - Well done.

    These books are very famous to NZ kids as the author is from NZ, often you will find these books in all libraries and they really help with reading and rhyming.

    I like this description I found on each of the characters in the story

    "Schnitzel von Krumm
    with a very low tum,
    Bitzer Maloney
    all skinny and bony,
    Muffin McClay
    like a bundle of hay,
    Bottomley Potts
    covered in spots,
    Hercules Morse
    as big as a horse

    and Hairy Maclary
    from Donaldson's Dairy"

    Which one is your favorite?

    Look forward to hearing from you and commenting on my reply.
    Talk soon

      Hello Clare, it was really hard to rhyme them. My favourite sentence was Bottomley Potts covered in spots because every Dalmatian has spots.
