Review
"The simple text is satisfying in its specificity and characterizations, while the illustrations support the text and illuminate the characters' emotions." - The Horn Book "Full of simple wordplay and kindhearted irony, each mini-story begins with a title and ends with a clever twist. The humor strengthens the friendship of the eager and fun-loving characters in an amusing and inclusive way." - School Library Journal "Dog and Bear return just in time for Halloween . . . All the elements that made this series titles such a hit are here . . . Seeger's tricks are readers' treats." - Kirkus Reviews “Seeger skillfully sketches the characters emotions and humor, and the “gotcha” zingers that wrap up all three stories will leave readers with a smile.” - Publisher's Weekly
