This Is the Dog

By Sheryl McFarlane

Book Overview

What do you do about a puppy that runs away? Get moving

That's exactly what our frustrated young owner has to do in this delightful rhyming story.

After breaking loose, a little dog leaves chaos in its wake as it races through the streets to a local beach, grabbing snacks from vendors and bystanders, wreaking havoc with a fisherman's haul and splattering drool and cookie crumbs on a teacher's papers. Will our poor heroine ever catch up with her freewheeling canine? Or will someone - or something - else put a stop to this puppy's crime spree?

The award-winning author of A Pod of Orcas teams up with a new illustrator, whose hilarious illustrations will appeal to young dog enthusiasts and lovers of mayhem everywhere.
