Meet Cletus: a biscuit-loving, slow-walking Southern gentleman of a Basset Hound-with a nose for mischief and a heart full of charm.
Cletus Beauregard Hound lives life at his own unhurried pace. From his favorite place beneath the porch swing, he keeps watch over the small town of Hickory Bluff, where biscuits disappear, squirrels conspire, roosters hold grudges, and ordinary days have a habit of becoming adventures.
In these 25 illustrated stories, Cletus goes to church, joins a parade, serves on a jury, falls in love, makes peace with the mailman, confronts a haunted outhouse, and faces the terrible squeak of a rubber chicken. Through it all, he offers his own peculiar blend of Southern wisdom, stubborn determination, and well-timed naps.
Warm, funny, and family-friendly, The Adventures of Cletus the Basset Hound is a collection for dog lovers and readers of all ages who enjoy gentle humor, memorable characters, and stories with a little heart tucked beneath the laughter.
This large-print edition features a full-page grayscale illustration for every adventure.
Life is richer when you slow down, sniff the breeze, and maybe sneak a biscuit or two when no one's lookin'.
