From ‘A is for Action’ to ‘Z is for zonked and a snug place to stay as we all settle down at the end of the day‘ the familiar, special and sometimes not-so-special things about dogs are wittily captured in a brief rhyming text and beautiful illustrations on each of the spreads.

Underpinning it all is a warm hearted and witty way of showing a deep affection for all dogs, and their many and varied habits.

A is for action…and B is for bark. C is for catching a ball in the park
