When Jet the dog goes for a walk, he always manages to bring back the wrong thing! Will he ever find his toy? The Tiddlers series features fun stories with a word count of fewer than 50 words for children who are just starting to read.A word list at the beginning of the story allows for a quick check of the reader's ability to read and understand words before reading, and a puzzle at the end of the story encourages rereading for pleasure.
Dog's beautiful white coat acts rather like a magnet for spills of all sorts in this story that is full of colour and counting. Soon Dog is covered in spots made by a dollop of red jam, a drip of blue paint and so on as the day progresses. Soon he is a technicolour canine with ten spots to count and ten colours to name. Colour recognition is re-inforced just before Dog has his bath.

Bobby wakes up in the middle of the night to hear something “sneaking softly past his window”. He looks out and see…
A HUGE ENORMOUS DINOSAUR!
He follows out into the night and finds a host of other dinosaurs playing in the city square, using the buildings as swings, slides and trampolines.
When they spot him, they threaten to eat him if he tells anyone about their existence, but Bobby promises not to tell, so they all end up playing a game of hide and seek together instead.
Bobby runs off to hide and finds a great hiding place in a dark tunnel. He sits and waits for the dinosaurs to find him…
