PICTURE BOOKS
Samuels, Barbara

Dolores on Her Toes

(3) K-3 Dolores and her cat, Duncan, are back--sort of: the latter goes AWOL, clearly tired of being used as aspiring ballerina Dolores's practice partner. As usual, the visual jokes and sight gags (readers will be able to spot Duncan even when Dolores can't) and Dolores's Ramona Quimby-like spunk distinguish Samuels's books from much other child-and-pet picture book fare.
