Bartelby is a very long dachshund who just wants a simple walk, but his bumbling bottom has a mind of its own!
"Soft-focus, colored-pencil illustrations have a whimsical appeal,
with amusing expressions for Bartelby and a multiethnic cast of
characters." - Kirkus
"Patton (Drat That Fat Cat!) adeptly highlights the story's
physical comedy, and Bartleby's scruffy fur and expressive,
bugged-out eyes make him a sympathetic pup." -
Publishers Weekly
"A sublimely silly book that children and dog lovers will enjoy
reading again and again." - School Library Journal,
Popular Pick

""The Very Very Very Long Dog" is a deftly written and
