Editorial Reviews

This amusing book is aptly intended for toddlers, for whom the agony of waiting will seem all too familiar. They will surely identify with the dog's frustration at being dragged along on errands…Accompanying this lively story are pen-and-ink drawings in black and white, with soft splashes of gray and blocks of stripes, dots and crosshatching. Despite her limited color palette, Rand's impressive array of textures, tones, shapes and patterns captures the endless variety of images to be found on the simplest of strolls.
