About The Author

Alex T. Smith briefly considered careers in space travel, cookery and being a rabbit, but finally decided to become an illustrator. He earned a first-class honors degree in Illustration from Coventry University and went on to create the award-winning Claude series which has been developed as an animated TV show. When he isn't doodling in his sketchbook, Alex can be found people-watching and eavesdropping. He lives in England with two very tiny and naughty dogs.

"Children who have yet to discover Claude, the small, plump dog with the nifty red beret, and his sidekick, Sir Bobblysock (who is both a sock and quite bobbly), are in for a delight. . . . [W]hen they venture into a winter wonderland, mayhem and hilarity ensues." —School Library Journal"The new book in the series may be the sweetest surrealist children's book ever published. . . [I]t's hard not to love a main character who wears a one-man-band outfit to the library, in case he finds a very exciting book." —Kirkus Reviews"Humorous red-accented illustrations, an amusing storytelling style, and quirky plots will continue to delight Claude's fans." —The Horn Book Guide
