Guard the House, Sam!

32 pp. | Children's Press | January, 1998 | Library ISBN 0-516-20796-2
(3) K-3 Rookie Reader series. Guarding the house and wrecking the house look a lot alike in this light, humorous picture book about a rambunctious dog who loves staying home alone. Loud and lively caricatured illustrations tell the real story behind the simple text, as they show that Sam's method of looking for burglars involves chewing books, digging in closets, and knocking down drapes.
