Guardian review
Dogs
Julia Eccleshare the guardian Sat 14 March 2009
Emily Gravett, a prizewinning illustrator, places her expressive canines in clear, white space on the page. These bold pictures, of big dogs and small dogs, hairy dogs and bald dogs, stroppy dogs and soppy dogs, each tell their own story; but there's a surprise at the end, when the reader finds out exactly who the narrator is.
