Rover and the Big Fat Baby Summary

Rover and the Big Fat Baby by Roddy Doyle

Rover, canine star of The Giggler Treatment, Rover Saves Christmas and The Meanwhile Adventures is back!

The BFB (Big Fat Baby) is missing!

Can Rover the wonder dog and his little nephew Messi (who is actually very tidy) track her down?

While Rover and co. are hot on the trail of the BFB, via Granny Mack's backpack, the post lady's basket and a plane bound for Africa, it looks like the Gigglers are about to run out of poo . . .

And without an urgent delivery from Rover, how will they be able to give the Giggler Treatment to grumpy adults and help kids all over the country?

In Rover and the Big Fat Baby, Rover returns for another adventure in this bestselling illustrated series by Booker Prize-winner Roddy Doyle.

Rover and the Big Fat Baby Reviews

"A bracingly rude dose of fun." --Publishers Weekly on The Giggler Treatment
"Roddy Doyle is an absolute genius!" --J.K. Rowling on The Giggler Treatment
"Fans of Dav Pilkey, Jon Scieszka, and Lemony Snicket will appreciate this zany, irreverent story that spoofs literary and bookmaking conventions and includes references to Harry Potter, dog poo, and monkeys' bums." --School Library Journal on Rover Saves Christmas
