Illustrated by
Daniel Kirk.
When their truck full of bones gets stuck in a huge pothole, two dogs seek help from a variety of passing vehicles, but nothing works until a tow truck arrives to pull them out. Though the jaunty rhyming text never mentions it, the sleek, colorful illustrations reveal that a band of prairie dogs has engineered the whole incident and is making off with all the bones.
