Synopsis

" What does Dudley do all day while we' re away?" Sam wonders. Mom explains that Dudley does ordinary dog things: he eats, naps, guards the house, and plays. But in Sam' s mind, Dudley' s day at home is anything but ordinary. Delightful digital paintings depict the human activities Sam imagines Dudley is doing – which don' t quite match Mom' s explanations. Dudley' s Day at Home is a funny, fetching picture book that uses minimal text and maximal visual storytelling to share a day in a dog' s life.

This is both heartwarming and hilarious, especially if you have a pet. The text left plenty of room for the artwork to show the hilarious antics of Dudley and Buttercup and then Mom and Sam. This book will make fun reading time for parents and their children.......more
