Review: Wonderful pics and story! - This is a wonderful picture book with bright interesting pictures to explore and talk about with kids. The story of relieving the stressed out dog with a soothing trip to the beach is wonderful. We relate at people too! Love this. I have shared it with kids , ages 4 to 12 so far.
Review: A wonderful treat of a book! - In poetic text combined with lovely pencil, gouache on paper and Photoshopped illustrations, Salati presents readers with a delightful reminder of the need to enjoy nature's beauty's once in a while. The story follows a dachshund getting walked around New York as his owner runs errands. Eventually the dog refuses to move one more step. Naturally he does this in the middle of the street. Luckily his owner knows exactly what to do. After taxi, train, and ferry rides, the dog and his lady arrive at the beach where the dog can run. At this point the book becomes wordless. No words are needed to show the dogs delight in playing with the waves, digging and fetching shells, and encountering a seal. Eventually they return home to the city with lots of new memories to dream about in their apartment. This adorable little dog is bound to win over many a young reader with his antics. Salati does an expert job showing the dogs' feelings as he droops in the heat and rebounds in the ocean breezes. Definitely made me want to be there as well. A book that manages to pay homage to both the beauty of the seashore and the wonders of the city. An fun book that more than deserves the Caldecott Medal it recently won, guaranteeing the book will be around for years to come for readers young and old to enjoy.
