(3) K-3 Everyone (except his doting owners) thinks Chowder the bulldog is odd; he prefers reading newspapers to fetching them and loves gazing through his owners' telescope. One day he spies a petting zoo sign and hopes he can find some friends. Retro-style illustrations, varied design, and the occasional use of different typefaces add even more humor to this quirky celebration of individuality.
