## Description

Two-time Caldecott Medalist Sophie Blackall's follow-up to her bestselling If I Was a Horse explores the challenges of first friendships through imaginative play. If we were dogs, what kind would we be? I'd be a big dog! And you'd be little dog. Woof! Join two friends as they bark and growl, woof and howl - and maybe even quack - in a romp that makes room for everybody's ideas. Sophie Blackall unleashes a marvelous game of pretend that explores navigating friendship and celebrates boundless imagination.
