Fans of Richard Scarry, to whom the book is dedicated, may enjoy this collection of scenes ("At Work," "The Farm") and topics ("Vegetables," "Clothes"), all featuring a cast of cartoony dogs. With help, youngsters may even get an idea of what some dogs (a.k.a. humans) do all day, though some sections (e.g., "Insects") seem especially random. Fortunately, the silly art is independently delightful.
