Read-Aloud Genius!

This humorous book is perfect to read aloud to young children. The book's rhythm sweeps the audience along on a tide of descriptive language and original phrase. Children will identify with the lovable poodle, who fails to stay immaculate for very long as he prefers to join in with the action at the beach. However, the "dashing dog" is redeemed at the end of the tale, and we are reminded that our actions can reveal the inner beauty of our true character.
