From the publisher

A dog and a strawberry find themselves nose to stem in this hilarious picture book that’s perfect for dog lovers. An epic battle ensues–who will come out on top? Welcome to the Greatest Race of All Time! Give it up for our reigning champion, the one-and-only DOG! And let’s have a hand for her opponent: the formidable STRAW-BER-RYYYY! When Dog is handed a strawberry from the fruit bowl, she sizes it up, dances around it, and decides she is going to race the Strawberry–and win. She dashes left, then right, then–oh!– over the couch in an attempt to outrun her opponent. Strawberry doesn’t move, but that doesn’t stop Dog from continuing the race. Eventually, it’s neck-and-neck… until mom walks in to see what the fuss is about, and SPLAT! Kids everywhere will recognize the rivalry at play here, and will laugh-out-loud at the bright, expressive illustrations and ridiculous scenarios from the award-winning creators of Cat Dog Dog.
