(4) K-3 A dog's search for a treat is foiled repeatedly, leading to a fantastical dream and ultimate reward. The single-word text ("treat! treat? treeeat?") uses varied fonts to communicate tone, while panel illustrations carry the story and give each character a distinct personality. Some illustrations are difficult to follow, but the dog's hapless quest and his over-the-top reactions will tickle readers' funny bones.
