These patient pound dogs.
Now they’re family!
Found dogs.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Dogs of all varieties arrive at a shelter, beginning with one "long and low" dachshund and increasing by the page: "5 dogs, wimpery, whiney./ 6 dogs, spotty, shiny./ 7 dogs, quick and slick./ 8 dogs, teeny-tiny." Sirotich (J.P. and the Stinky Monster) assures readers and the dogs that all will find homes: "Wait, dogs, a little longer.../ Soon, dogs, you'll be found!" The accompanying cartoons are as cheery as the verse, and as prospective owners meet and adopt dogs, Sirotich counts back down from 10. Beyond the numerical fun, it's an upbeat reminder of all the perfect matches that are just waiting to be made at the local animal shelter. Ages 2 5.
