Oscar #3: Oscar and the CATastrophe

If dogs could talk, they’d tell you they hate cats. Well, Oscar CAN talk, and that’s what he’s saying! A cat has moved in next door, and Carmen the pampered pussycat is almost as much of a nightmare neighbour as her awful owner, Mrs Bentley-Wallop. Still, Oscar and his owner Sam have bigger things to worry about. A jewel thief has struck, and our daring duo are turning detective. Oscar is sure he can sniff out the culprit. Woof! But, as this book’s title suggests, a CATastrophe is about to strike!

  • Hilarious young fiction by the author of Dirty Bertie
  • Third in a witty series about a boy and his talking dog
  • Lively short fiction which is great for building fluency
  • Perfect for older fans of Horrid Henry and Dirty Bertie
