BALL
BALL, by Mary Sullivan (Houghton Mifflin 2013)(ages 3+). In this nearly-wordless picture book, Dog is obsessed with playing fetch and Girl is happy to oblige. When Girl has to go to school, though, what's a dog to do?
BALL is hilarious fun, terrifically capturing every dog's biggest obsession (after food and sleep).
Here are a couple pics from the launch party Saturday:
