Don't miss Harry the Dirty Dog! This funny picture book [now available in board book!] about the strong-willed dog who really doesn't want a bath stands the test of time.

he no longer looks like a white dog with black spots. Now he looks like
a black dog with white spots!

who also don't always want a bath! This board book edition features
sturdy pages and is just the right size for little ones.

about all three books: There is a droll, seemingly effortless union of
art and text in the Harry stories, a delicious mastery of everyday
foolishness.
