The Dogs Next Door

Ages 4 to 8, Grades K to 3

Absurd in the best way, The Dogs Next Door is a silly, playful, multilayered picture book for kids – and grownups – who adore dogs and giggling.

A silly, playful, and multilayered picture book for kids (and grownups) who adore dogs and giggling.When new dogs move next door and invite themselves over for breakfast, it can test a girl’s patience. But when the dogs eat all the bacon? That’s just rude. Fortunately, these rough-around-the-edges mutts are not without charm, as time spent together playing banjo and swimming in the river shows the girl. Until, that is, she spots a WANTED poster and begins to wonder: Could these be bad dogs?
