One Hundred Sausages - by Yuval Zommer (Hardcover)

About the Book

A riotous follow-up to One Hundred Bones finds sausage-loving pooch Scruff inciting the wrath of his neighbors with his food-snatching activities until a theft at the butcher shop compels Scruff to use his sausage-sniffing nose to track down the culprit.

Book Synopsis

A heartwarming, hilarious follow-up to One Hundred Bones!

Scruff just can't resist sausages; salami, pepperoni, chorizo . . . he simply loves them all. But gate-crashing barbecues and hanging around outside the local butcher's shop is not making him the most popular dog in town. Then one day, disaster strikes! There's a break-in at the butcher's, and all the sausages are stolen! Neither the policeman, nor the mayor, nor the butcher can trace the sausage thief. There's only one thing to do--Scruff will have to sniff him out! After a lot of twists and turns, Scruff's sniffing talents and bravery save the day, and he and his friends are rewarded with a meal at a fancy restaurant. What's on the menu? SAUSAGES!
