Written by Nelly Buchet, Illustrated by Andrea Zuill
Well, if this is not the cutest book! How does an easily excitable dog face off against an inanimate piece of fruit, you ask? To great comic delight, of course, dog zooming over and around furniture, upending a potted plant, getting distracted by chasing his tail, and succumbing to fits of exhaustion…you see where this is going. But who will cross the finish line first? That strawberry might just surprise us, or will dog win by default? Read it to find out.
Author Nelly Buchet, and illustrator Andrea Zuill have really captured the energy and silliness of a dog with the zoomies, and it is just a hoot to imagine that this could be going on in the dog’s mind. A fun read aloud that will especially delight those who love dogs.
