"Illustrator Sullivan makes a hilarious debut as an author by touring the brain of a ball-obsessed dog. . . . It's a paean to the neurotic single-mindedness of dogs, and a brilliant study of boredom." e" Publishers Weekly, starred review "A humorous portrait of a dog with a one-track mind. . . . A fine choice for independent readers and dog lovers everywhere." e" School Library Journal "Deceptively simple little winner for dog lovers." e" Kirkus "Everything from the dog's brief encounter with a cat to his extended, ball-centric dream, told in full-page drawings, will make viewers giggle along with the story.

  • Nice clean book.

    Nice clean book. Thought it would have the paper cover around the outside. Was disappointed that it didn’t come with. The description didn’t indicate it wasn’t included so I thought it had the paper cover with the dog on front around it.
