A Dog Day for Susan

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Monica Arnaldo. When Great-Aunt Alice and her pampered, elegant dog Susan come to visit, Spencer and his inelegant pooch "show Susan how to be a regular dog" with a satisfying wild romp in the dog park. Though the overlong story sometimes seems directionless, the illustrations mine the humor in the contrast between well-groomed, sedate Susan and her muddy, grinning, "regular" self.
