Ferry Tail

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Nicole Wong. Dog Walter enjoys ferry life--greeting the cars, tasting food for the cook--but Cupcake, the captain's cat, rubs him the wrong way. When Walter runs away and gets lost, though, it's Cupcake who guides him back. The pivotal rescue makes little sense, but the predictable story and gentle illustrations, with scratched lines, soft colors, and expressive dog body-language, will please storytime crowds.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
