On a family outing, a French Bulldog gets to experience life along side his human sister, just in his own way.

A French Bulldog and his human sister spend an enjoyable day together in this fun picture-book for toddlers. From waking together to eating together, from playing in the park to going to the market, dog and girl engage in all the same activities, although each is tailored to their own particular needs...

With bright illustrations and a simple text - no more than a sentence per page - The Best Days Are Dog Days is a title ideally suited for the younger picture-book audience, especially those children who have a special canine friend. There is a New York setting here - there are brownstones in the family's neighborhood, and the Freedom Tower can be seen in the distance, placing the locale somewhere in Brooklyn, I would think - but it should appeal to a wide audience. I had the pleasure of meeting Chubu, the author's Frenchie, who served as the inspiration (together with the author's new baby) for this book, and he was adorable! Recommended to anyone looking for toddler and dog-friendly picture-books. ( )
