The Biggest Dog in the Book

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
Answer the most important question of all. Which IS the biggest dog in the book... Dogs of all shapes and sizes star in this delightful book, but which of them is the biggest? From tiny Chihuahua Agnes who loves to burrow beneath cushions, to Holly the Collie, who loves chasing her tail, this book contains a pack of adorable dogs. Each is special in their own way, but only one of these lovable pups can be the biggest. A gatefold surprise at the end of the book reveals just who is the BIGGEST dog in the book. Written by award-winning author Ben Lerwill and illustrated by prizewinning artist Mark Chambers, this book will appeal to dog lovers everywhere, and anyone who appreciates animals, no matter what size they are. \"A high-energy pick for pet owners and a good storytime pairing for Kevin Sherry's I'm the Biggest Thing in the Ocean or Emily Gravett's 10 Dogs.\" - Booklist

About the Author

Ben Lerwill is an award-winning travel writer and children's book author, living in a small village in England with his family and sporadically obedient dog. Many of his children's books echo his passion for globetrotting and his experience in his work as a travel writer. Wild Family was named Children's Book of the Week in the Sunday Times, and Around the World in 80 Trees was shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize. Mark Chambers is an author and illustrator of children's picture books and young fiction, living in the French mountains with his partner and two dogs. Mark studied illustration at university and has illustrated books written by Kes Gray, Lucy Rowland, and Charlie Higson to name a few. His work was shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize in 2013, and won the Sheffield Children's Picture Book Prize in the same year.
