<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"What does Dudley do all day while we're away?" Sam wonders. Mom explains that Dudley does ordinary dog things: he eats, naps, guards the house, and plays. But in Sam's mind, Dudley's day at home is anything but ordinary. Delightful digital paintings depict the human activities Sam imagines Dudley is doing - which don't quite match Mom's explanations. Dudley's Day at Home is a funny, fetching picture book that uses minimal text and maximal visual storytelling to share a day in a dog's life."--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"What does Dudley do all day while we're away?"

Very highly recommended..." --<i>Midwest Book Review</i><br><br>"Bright, cheerful cartoons contrast Sam and Dudley's days, in reality and imagination, and offer plenty of scope for extension activities. This makes a delightful storytime read, but teachers and parents will also find it a great choice for a writing or drawing prompt." --Jennifer Wharton, <i>Jean Little Library </i><br><br>"This book is a wonderful and visually appealing story for young children between 3 and 7 years of age. It is small on words and big on pictures. It is colourful, creative, and full of adventure; with a really sweet ending that highlights the relationship between a child and a dog." --Christa McGrath, <i>Edwards Book Club Reviews</i><br><br>"When Sam asks and Mom answers, a fun picture of what Sam imagines their darling dog does when they're away from home unfolds. And from his innocent question and mom's generic answer come these brilliantly-joyful illustrations that completely capture Sam's incredible imagination that has Dudley doing all sorts of entertaining and crazy-fun people stuff while they are away." --Barbara Gruener, <i>Corner on Character </i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Karen Kaufman Orloff</b> is the author of many award-winning books for children, including the <i>I Wanna</i> series (<i>I Wanna Iguana</i>, <i>I Wanna New Room, I Wanna Go Home</i>).
