(2) PS Murphy the terrier may call the other farm animals "dumb," but he himself is anything but: "I bark at anything and everything and all the time." Beginning with Murphy's early-morning rush from barn to house, he's into everything. Provensen's phrasing is as crisply staccato as Murphy's importunate bark, while her multiple, cleanly drafted images of the jaunty terrier prance comically across ample white space.
