From the publisher

In this new adventure, beloved children’s icon Carl has his paws full with a curious baby elephant who likes backyard wading pools, playgrounds, and fruit stands! This exciting story features iconic characters Carl and Madeleine as they visit a children’s zoo and encounter different baby animals. When they leave for an ice cream cone and a walk around the neighborhood, a little elephant follows them… and gets into some mischief along the way! What is a good dog to do? Another fantastic addition to the Good Dog, Carl series, this book features appealing, nearly wordless narratives, with the lovable (and somewhat mischievous) Rottweiler, Carl, and his little girl, Madeleine. Illustrator Alexandra Day’s painterly skills are fantastically immersive and her loving portrayal of the gentle dog and his trusting child companion are as winning as ever. Perfect for young, pre-literate children and budding artists, this board book features beautiful full-page paintings and a delightfully engaging wordless narrative.
