Description

From the award-winning creators of 'Uh-OH! My Dragon's Hungry' comes a hilariously heartwarming, must-have picture book that's sure to leave you with the "warm and fuzzies" (and a new appreciation for your four-legged family members)!

The family dog has a LOT to get off his chest. Because, well, living with children can be...challenging.

Between playing dress-up, being squeezed too tightly, and dirty toys in Dog's water bowl, this canine has had ENOUGH!!

Will Dog find that there are sweet moments to be cherished amidst the chaos?

Editorial Reviews

"In Weaver's charming picture book, a dog reassesses his not-so-glowing review of little kids.

"Families are OVERRATED!" as far as the bluish-gray hound named Dog is concerned. While he approves of the adults in the household, the four small children are for the birds. In an attempt to resolve his conflicted feelings, Dog pours his heart out to a therapist scribbling on a notepad. Dog lists his grievances via couplet rhymes: "And many times I've found their dirty toys INSIDE MY BOWL! / It's obvious these little humans have no SELF-CONTROL!" With key words highlighted in colorful and bolded fonts for more emphasis, his voice now has added urgency. Soylu's lively drawings in muted tones are wondrously effective in animating Dog; his hanging jowls, big eyes, and floppy ears all convey believably beleaguered expressions. Lifelike details enhance the dramatic effect of the children's boisterous antics. At the end, Weaver provides a list of do's and don'ts for interacting with pets. Dog lovers can identify the dog breed silhouettes on the endpapers. Kids will get a kick out of Dog's opinion of humans and perhaps recognize some behaviors to reconsider.

This humorous, lively dog's-eye view provides gentle instruction for interacting with pets."
