“What does Dudley do all day while we’re away?” Sam wonders. Mom explains that Dudley does ordinary dog things: he eats, naps, guards the house, and plays. But in Sam’s mind, Dudley’s day at home is anything but ordinary. Delightful digital paintings depict the human activities Sam imagines Dudley is doing – which don’t quite match Mom’s explanations. Dudley’s Day at Home is a funny, fetching picture book that uses minimal text and maximal visual storytelling to share a day in a dog’s life.

When Sam asks and Mom answers, a fun picture of what Sam imagines their darling dog does when theyre away from home unfolds. And from his innocent question and moms generic answer come these brilliantly-joyful illustrations that completely capture Sams incredible imagination that has Dudley doing all sorts of entertaining and crazy-fun people stuff while they are away. Barbara Gruener, Corner on Character 

Perfect example of how illustrations complement and add story for a magical combination.  Eric Herrington, teacher and childrens picture book writer

This storys full of imagination, funny illustrations, bringing Dudleys wild day to life. Perfect for any little reader who adores animals or wonders what happens when theyre not around. Vanesa Josevski, children's book author

"This book is a wonderful and visually appealing story for young children between 3 and 7 years of age. It is small on words and big on pictures. It is colourful, creative, and full of adventure; with a really sweet ending that highlights the relationship between a child and a dog." —Christa McGrath, Edwards Book Club Reviews
"Bright, cheerful cartoons contrast Sam and Dudley's days, in reality and imagination, and offer plenty of scope for extension activities. This makes a delightful storytime read, but teachers and parents will also find lS|
