Description

Dawg is desperate for a walk but nobody in his family has time. He takes matters into his own paws, going on a solo adventure that gets everyone worried until… it’s suppertime, and Dawg is back right where he belongs.

Lyrical, free verse poetry in picture book format, and a rollicking story about an adventuresome dog who teaches his family a valuable lesson.

Leanne Franson spent her childhood winters in Regina and Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, building snow forts while her dad watched hockey games on TV. She was a really bad skater -- but she could draw really well! In 1991, after she finished her BFA in Montreal, she started illustrating books. Leanne is fluently bilingual and has worked on books in English and French, illustrating in total over 100 picture books, chapter books, and textbooks. In 2012, she and her teenage son Benn returned to Saskatchewan, where she draws and makes ceramics in her acreage studio.
