I am Dog!
Peter Bently and Chris Chatterton
(Pan Macmillan)
£6.99
I am Dog! with fox poo to roll in, other dogs to sniff and next- door’s cat to woof away loudly. What’s more there’s begging to be done, walks to take and ducks to splash after. It seems there are always treats to sniff out, even if they’re nothing to do with me….
What might happen if Dog follows his nose to a table of delicious scents, to scratch upon it, slide and scarper, twist and overturn, crash and tumble to a complete disaster? Could it be that his Boss sends him to his basket in disgrace? Or might Dog be happy to turn about three times before falling asleep before the fire? After all, this dog’s life is a full and adventurous one!
The rhyming fun of Peter Bently’s charming text details this Dog’s exuberance. Thereafter, Chris Chatterton, who introduced us to his Gus, offers a far more vigorous, enthusiastic character in this dog. We love the wild mayhem of his life, through his shakey-shakey in the park, to the race through the street, past the queue outside the butcher’s! We need to linger over these pictures and then realise the fullness of Dog’s day. What a charming, funny and thoroughly enjoyable picture book!
