Rover and the Big Fat Baby

Ooh – what a gorgeous, hairy baby! Or is it actually Rover, in a very silly disguise? Yup, Rover the wonder-dog – star of The Giggler Treatment – is back. And he’s dealing with a major emergency! The BFB (Big Fat Baby) is missing. Can Rover the wonder dog and his little nephew Messi, who is actually very tidy, track her down? Rover and Messi are soon hot on the trail of the BFB, via Granny Mack’s backpack, the post lady’s basket and a plane bound for Africa. But there’s a problem. With Rover away, it looks like the Gigglers are about to run out of poo. If grumpy adults can’t be punished, how will kids everywhere cope?
