(3) PS Young Madeleine and her Rottweiler, Carl, attend Children's Day at the zoo. Naturally, Madeleine, Carl, and a baby elephant escape: they eat ice cream, romp with kids in a backyard pool, etc. This near-wordless book's pleasures include the thrilling idea of an unsupervised pet-child combo (Madeleine looks to be about five) and Day's painterly depiction of a Rockwellian world.
