When Lucy Goes out Walking: A Puppy's First Year

32 pp. | Holt/Ottaviano | November, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8050-8168-8 $16.99
(4) PS On each spread, one for each month of the year, short rhyming text chronicles the growth and adventures of Lucy the dog and her little-boy owner. Though the poems are formulaic and repetitive, they are also warmhearted and readable. Children will enjoy charting Lucy's development against the cycling of the seasons, as reflected in Wolff's engaging gouache illustrations.
