A tongue twister of a picture book.

A fun, new tongue-twister picture book. The watercolor and pencil illustrations are gorgeous! Tongue-twisting text isn't my favorite, so I won't be sharing it at storytime.

Reviewed from a library copy.

The water color pup is awesome.

A very cute book with sweet illustrations but it's definitely a tongue twister! I'd be nervous to read this at storytime because I'd inevitable say "a greyhog, a grounddog."

The watercolors in this are so beautiful and crisp that I can't help but to love the illustrations.  More than that, but the typography is incredible in its design and how it goes round and round, following the greyhound and groundhog.  It's certainly a beautiful book, absolutely perfect for new and young readers.

Ahhhhhh! This is absolutely delightful! I had to read it multiple times and it really should be read aloud to have the most fun with it. The watercolor illustrations are just perfect, I can't describe them any better than that. It actually looks like it was so fun to create this book. I am going to stop writing about it now so I can go read it again!

Clever tongue-twister text that begs to be read aloud (better for side-by-side reading than story time though?) with lovely illustrations that showcase the meet cute and play date of these two animals who become insta-friends.

This is my very favorite kind of tongue-twister read aloud, with beautiful, simple, supportive illustrations.
