We want a dog! What kind of dog…?

‘A visual treat with a jaunty, easy-to-read text, this should have wide appeal.’ - School Library Journal

‘Lively, rhyming text is perfectly paired with expressive, energetic artwork. The bold digital illustrations, done in a minimal palette of black, white, and red, are full of spontaneity and ingeniousness…Together text and art will garner giggles for this perfect read-aloud with a surprise twist ending!’ - Kirkus Reviews, starred review
