1-3Lu and Clancy series.
Illustrated by
Pat Cupples.
Canine friends Lu and Clancy and two pups encounter a thunderstorm, get lost, and spend the night in a cave. There's not much substance to the story, which acts as a vehicle for several activities demonstrating the properties of sound; for example, there are instructions for making a cardboard kazoo. Adequate artwork contributes humorous details. More safety reminders for the tin can projects would be helpful.
