About this ebook
Claude and Sir Bobblysock hit the slopes for a snow-covered adventure. From the award-winning early chapter book series by Alex T. Smith.
“The new book in the series may be the sweetest surrealist children’s book ever published.” ―Kirkus Reviews
Claude and his best friend Sir Bobblysock go to the Snowy Mountains to swish down the powdery slopes. They throw snowballs, learn to ski, and enter a snow-sculpture contest. But when an avalanche threatens their winter wonderland, Claude must come to the rescue.
Quirky, delightfully odd, and positively surreal, Alex T. Smith’s illustrated early chapter book series promises giggle-filled bedtime reading and a laugh-out-loud option for readers transitioning from picture books to chapter books. Available in eBook.

Alex T. Smith has drawn and written stories since he could hold a pencil. After considering several career options (space traveller, cake maker, professional rabbit), Alex decided to train to do the job he’d wanted to do since he was five – an illustrator specializing in the world of children’s publishing. Alex graduated with a first-class degree in Illustration in 2006 and also won second place in the Macmillan Prize for Illustration in his final year. Since then Alex has gone on to work for a wide variety of clients, not just in the publishing industry, as well as writing and illustrating his own picture books, many of which have won prizes and have been read on TV during the Bedtime Hour on the CBeebies channel. Alex is also the creator of the bestselling Claude series for early readers, now an animated TV series on Disney Junior. His wonderful Christmas adventure How Winston Delivered Christmas is his first title for Macmillan. When not working, Alex enjoys doodling in his sketchbook, reading, people-watching and eavesdropping. He is also a big fan of cake and a nice cup of tea. He lives with and under the constant ‘supervision’ of his canine companions in Warwickshire.

Fiction, children
I received a digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an unbiased review.
This is the third book in a delightfully fun book series for children. Claude is a dog, who along with his sidekick Sir Bobblysock ( a real sock!) explore adventures and learn lessons along the way. This book describes the excitement of experiencing snow for the first time. Claude provides advice to his mischievous friend, such as indoor and outdoor voices! Kids will find Claude quirky with his beret full of important things!
Kids will forward to reading more books about he adventures of Claude and his friends.
