Overview'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.

Table of ContentsReviewsWhen 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, Corner on Character 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, Edwards Book Club Reviews 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, Jean Little Library Author InformationKaren Kaufman Orloff is the author of many award-winning books for children, including the I Wanna series (I Wanna Iguana, I Wanna New Room, I Wanna Go Home).
