Bruiser is full of mischief and wants to eat
everything in sight!
When he woofs down a particularly interesting snack...how will his humans react?
My Dog Bruiser Swallowed a Scooter is a fun rhyming book for children aged 2-8, about a little boy named Leo and his mischievous dog Bruiser, who gets into a big pickle in the vege patch at the family farm in Maleny. Ideal to read out loud to younger children and a perfect book for new readers. Beautifully illustrated with an Australian farming background.
BOOK REVIEW

Fran Knight - ReadPlus
Children will laugh out loud as Bruiser chomps on some very odd things around Grandpa’s farm. The children are there on a holiday and when playing in the vegetable patch Bruiser pounces on the scooter and swallows it down.
The audience will all swallow in unison at the thought of such a large metallic object going down their throats. Daisy and her brother try an ingenious array of things to make him give up the scooter......

MY DOG Bruiser Swallowed a Scooter
“My young kids love this delightful rhyming picture book about a cheeky Dachshund Bruiser, who literally bites off more than he can chew. The illustrations are beautiful and perfectly bring to life a farm and its inhabitants.”
Holly Douglas, mother to
