"Dog lovers everywhere will enjoy this story about Harry, a white dog with black spots who becomes a black dog with white spots when he manages to get himself very dirty. The happy ending makes it a perfect read-aloud for younger kids, and the complex illustrations offer opportunities for lots of discussion outside the text. This updated edition offers much more color, but the original edition provides the same great story. No one can resist such an agreeable main character with just enough moxie to keep things interesting!"
"Harry, the dog likes everything about his life except baths. (What dog does like his bath?). He hides his scrubbing brush in the backyard and goes on a dirt-finding frenzy! Slowly, surely this white-dog-with-white-spots becomes a black-dog-with-with-white-spots as Harry visits the construction zone, the railway yard, the coal shute, and frolicks with other dogs. His tummy rumbling, Harry heads back home to find his family doesn't recognize him! Oh no! Better find that scrubbing brush...in a hurry! After a good clean bath and tummy-filling dinner, it's time to hide that brush again/.
Use for 10/2009 Puppies!Puppies!Puppies! Storytime."
"This is an absolute must in your child's book collection. My two year old son has this book practically memorized. He loves Harry and all the adventures he encounters getting dirty. We also have "No Roses for Harry" and "Harry by the Sea". There are times we read all three before he goes to bed at night."
