Perfect for anyone aged 8+ who loves funny stories, especially for Andy Griffiths fans who are looking for something new.

Sit, stay, and prepare to laugh your tail off!

Dive into the wacky world of Fingers and his family in this side-splitting middle-grade adventure that will have you howling with laughter!

When Finn’s beloved Granddad starts acting more dog than human, things get seriously weird. Licking the postman? Growling at strangers? Chasing security guards up trees? Something’s definitely not right!

But that’s just the beginning of this tail-wagging tale. When Fingers and his sister Sally stumble upon a strange contraption in Granddad’s workshop, they unleash a whirlwind of mix-ups and mayhem. Suddenly, Granddad’s not the only one acting strange – even the family dog, DaVinci, seems a little too… human.

With time running out and sanity slipping away, can Fingers and Sally untangle this mess before everyone ends up in the doghouse?

Written by Tom E. Moffatt and illustrated by Paul Beavis

Reviews

BestFriendsAreBooks ~ Barking Mad is a crazy, hilarious read that will have you laughing out loud. As soon as I read the blurb I knew that this was going to be a book for me and I wasn’t disappointed. Just the idea of a grandad swapping minds with his dog was enough to make me laugh. You can just imagine how crazy and silly the story is going to be. Just when you think the story couldn’t get any funnier, it does. Can you imagine swapping bodies with your grandad, your sister, or your brother? That’s probably too scary to even think about! Barking Mad is perfect for anyone aged 8+ who loves funny stories, especially for Andy Griffiths fans who are looking for something new. I can’t wait to read what Tom writes next!
