Albert: The Dog Who Liked to Ride in Taxis

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Pierre Pratt. When Mr. Crabtree is away on business and Mrs. Crabtree isn't looking, Albert, a taxi-loving dog, jumps into a cab. As one ride leads to another, Albert passes up chances to travel and ends up at the airport just in time to greet Mr. Crabtree's plane. Although the text is a bit long, Albert's attitude and the acrylic illustrations are engaging.
