Description

Dogs love to dig but one dog named Doug takes digging to new heights (and depths) in this laugh-out-loud picture book from New York Times bestselling author Karma Wilson and celebrated illustrator Matt Myers. Meet Doug. Doug is a dog that loves to dig. But when Doug digs he doesn't just dig holes in the backyard. He digs...ditches the size of tractors! He digs...tunnels through gold mines! He even digs his way into...the White House! But not even the Secret Service can stop this digging doggy, because when Doug digs, oh boy, does Doug DIG!

Reviews

"Wilson (Bear Snores On) maintains a light, playful tone with loose rhymes and lots of alliteration, making this a fun readaloud." - Publisher's Weekly "The combination of a perky, naughty dog and lots of dirt and mud will appeal to kids who like a story of an adventurous pooch." - Kirkus Reviews "A standout among goofy dog picture books." - School Library Journal "A storytime showstopper that's also wellsuited for solitary viewings. Four paws up for digger Doug." - Booklist Online
