NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • WINNER OF THE 2023 CALDECOTT MEDAL • This glowing and playful picture book features an overheated—and overwhelmed—pup who finds his calm with some sea, sand, and fresh air. Destined to become a classic! NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post • Publishers Weekly • Kirkus Reviews • New York Public Library • One of Slate ’s 25 Greatest Picture Books of the Past 25 Years “An utter joy from beginning to end!” —Sophie Blackall, two-time Caldecott Medal winner This hot dog has had enough of summer in the city! Enough of sizzling sidewalks, enough of wailing sirens, enough of people's feet right in his face. When he plops down in the middle of a crosswalk, his owner endeavors to get him the breath of fresh air he needs. She hails a taxi, hops a train, and ferries out to the beach. Here, a pup can run ! With fluid art and lyrical text that have the soothing effect of waves on sand, award-winning author Doug Salati shows us how to find calm and carry it back with us so we can appreciate the small joys in a day.

Love this book
Didn’t realize how much of a hit this book would be with both kids and adults, myself included. It reads like poetry, the drawings are so beautiful, and the story really does feel like a little escape. Highly recommend!

A very special book, highly recommend this one!
This is a wonderful book, I can see why it won a Caldecott Medal. Every time I look at it, I see one more really clever thing that the writer/artist has done to tie the story together. It's very simple, very few words but it's a great example of the art telling most of the story. The illustrations do a great job of conveying mood and feeling and it needs few words. That can make the book new and different every time you read it to a young child, they may spot the subtle things or the reader can point them out. And who doesn't love an adorable dog, who gets out of the hot summer city with his kind owner for a special day at the beach?
