Reviews

"Today is the big day when Frankie and his dad head on over to the shelter to pick out a dog. Peppy rhyming verse traces their process as they meet various pooches... The gouache and digital illustrations carry the main impact of this sunny story, as the affectionate (and optimistic) Black father capably manages toddler son, cat, and rambunctious new dog...This is a cozy family story that will undoubtedly spur a yearning for a dog-acquiring outing in audiences as well, so clever adults not looking to promise dog ownership may want to be ready with a toy substitute or even a visit from a friendly local canine." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"(S)ure to deliver all the warm and fuzzy feels. Cute alert!" --Kirkus Reviews
