Summary

Description

When Lars, the little polar bear, rescues a husky puppy trapped in a deep crack in the ice, the little dog follows him and soon finds himself in trouble again. Howling pitifully, the puppy begs, “Please don’t leave me! I’m hungry and I want my mother!” So once again, it’s Lars to the rescue. But can he get the impetuous pup back safely to the rest of the husky team? Fans of Hans de Beer’s engaging Little Polar Bear won’t want to miss this exciting adventure.

Critic Reviews

“With minimalist art, muted colors, engaging characters and a dynamic and varied layout of art and text, "Odd Dog" presents a ridiculous story that will appeal to dog lovers everywhere -- as well as fans of subversive art in the style of Jon Klassen ("I Want My Hat Back"). ”

"The real treat is observing neurotic, slit-eyed Peanut and oblivious, wide-eyed Milo, both of whom are completely huggable."- Booklist
