While searching for members to join his Nothing-to-Do club, Puppy plays with his animal friends. On board pages. This description may be from another edition of this product.
My son got this book as a gift when he was 4 years old. Before Kindergarten he was able to "read" it from memory (with full character voices). Don't tell his friends, but he still likes it in second grade!
This is a sweet, funny story with adorable illustrations.

This is my favorite of all of Cyndy Szekeres' Golden Naptime Tales. It tells the story of a puppy who thinks he has nothing to do until he goes in search friends to form a Nothing-To-Do Club and ends up exhausted after a day filled with playing, dancing, reading and making mud pies. The illustrations are simple and heartwarming. The animals play with sweet abandon and the looks of joy conveyed on their faces make you want to pluck them from the book to give them a good petting and a resounding kiss! I'm also thrilled that the first line of this book is "Momma is away. Daddy is dusting." Throughout this series of books, the author/illustrator has communicated (without any Politically Correct sledgehammering) that men and women have an equal responsibility in taking care of children and the home and receive equal joy in the process.
