Bookroo's summary

Jack, a playful dog, loves toppling the boys' block tower. When a crucial piece vanishes, suspicion falls on him. But is Jack truly the culprit, or is there another thief at play? Discover the truth in this engaging, wordless tale that invites young readers to explore storytelling through action and imagination.

From the publisher

Jack is only playing when he knocks down the boy’s tower of blocks over and over again. But he’s the one who gets the blame when the prize piece of the tower is missing. Wait until the boys discover who the thief really is! This compelling, easy-to-follow, wordless picture book introduces pre-literate children to elements of story - such as character, setting, and action - enabling them to better understand language when they begin to read words.
