#8. Smelly Bill
Written and Illustrated by Daniel Postgate

Bill is a very naughty, smelly dog. Right there you have every single little boy's rapt attention. One day he goes to stay with his nemesis, the fanatical great Aunt Bleach and it's on. It's a joyride to the finish — Bleach is forced to use the washing line as a flying fox. Who will prevail? Never mind. Just sit back and enjoy.
