It's hard work being good all the time. And it's especially hard for a dog like George! Harris is off to do some shopping. "Will you be good, George?" he asks. George hopes he can. He really wants to...but chocolate cake is just so very delicious and he does love to chase cat...What will George do now? Chris Haughton's distinctive artwork perfectly accompanies the innocent charm of affable George, a dog trying to be good - with hilarious results! Chris was named as one of the Booktrust's Best New Illustrators 2011. This is the second picture book from rapidly rising star Chris Haughton, whose bold art and psychedelic colour palette appeal to young children and parents alike. "A Bit Lost" was winner of the 2011 Ellis Dillon award and Bisto Children's Book of the Year Award.
