(4) 1-3 Illustrated by John Eastwood. Titus, Queen Elizabeth II's favorite corgi, enjoys life at Windsor Castle. His days are filled with adventure (including catching burglars) and comforts (countless custard cream cookies).

(3) 1-3 Illustrated by John Eastwood. From the day he hatches, Frank the chicken longs to swim with the ducks. The farmer's family fashions a wetsuit and fins for him out of a hot-water bottle and a rubber glove, and for a time he is content. But as he grows, he realizes that he misses leading a normal chicken lifestyle. Illustrated with comic line drawings, the short chapter book is entertaining and easy to read.
