Don’t Mix Up My Puppy!

Tiger Tales. Jan. 2023. 10p. Board $9.99. ISBN 9781664350526.
COPY ISBN
Baby-Toddler–With Pat the Bunny-like use of textures, but with the addition of a spinning wheel to change, for example, the spotted tail of the dalmatian to a curly poodle’s, this book will have toddlers reaching for rereads. There’s an illustration of a dog—dachshund, setter, poodle, terrier, or that dalmatian—but the tails, seen through die-cut holes, are three-dimensional, movable, and distinctive.
VERDICT With a smiling carrot, a happy bee, and other touches, this lighthearted game will lead to mix-ups and “Put it back!” and plenty of happy accidents. A keeper.
