Description

It's a great day for a dog wash, and dogs of all shapes and sizes are invited. But watch out when somebody brings a cat! Shellie Braeuner's playful, rhyming text and Robert Neubecker's bold illustrations will make this one dog wash that kids and parents will want to visit again and again.

How did you come to write this book?

I was washing the dog, Fluffy, with Elizabeth, who was three years old. She started singing "Dog Wash, Dog Wash." And I thought that if she was having so much fun with the words, other children might too.

We dried Fluffy, and I started writing while her Mac and cheese was cooking!
