À propos de cet audio

A rambunctious pet dog helps an introverted, anxious boy leave his comfort zone in this endearing and very funny picture book—adapted for audio.

Nick has always been neat. That’s what makes him comfortable. Any kind of mess or noise or other havoc makes him anxious, and often that means he chooses to be alone in his own carefully controlled bedroom. But suddenly a big, drooly, energetic dog has joined the family, and as much as he tries there’s nothing Nick can do to control the doggy mess. And so, he decides he would rather avoid the pup altogether. Or would he?

This story of coping with anxiety and learning how to compromise is as big-hearted and laugh-filled as it is delightfully messy.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Otis imparts a gentle lesson that letting go of some control can be good. The mixed-media illustrations depict neat, carefully composed scenes, while others explode with raggedy swirls; whether readers prefer order or mayhem, they’ll enjoy this tale. Thoughtful and empathetic." —Kirkus


"A heartfelt tale that may guide those who grapple with a balance between order and the disorderly joys of companionship. The illustrations are reminiscent of Eric Carle’s vibrant mosaic style. The bright colors and playful designs capture the essence of Nick’s journey, enhancing the emotional depth of the story. The combination of simple sentences and speech bubbles throughout the pages makes the text accessible and engaging for children, allowing them to connect with the story. A gentle reminder that sometimes the messiest moments bring the greatest happiness. With its relatable themes, vibrant illustrations, and engaging narrative, this book is a perfect addition to any child’s bookshelf." —School Library Journal
