Buster and the Baby cover

“A delight through and through.” Red Reading Hub

With beautifully tender artwork and a bouncy, read-aloud text, follow a little baby and a dog in a breathless game of hide and seek.

In the little red house, Buster the dog ducks under the table. He waits and watches and waits some more as his heart goes thump, thump, thump. And then ... CHAAA! Out of the shadows comes the baby, squealing and whirling and bumping his nose! Go Buster! Go, Buster! Go!

From acclaimed storyteller Amy Hest, author of Kiss Good Night, Sam and Polly Dunbar, illustrator of the Tilly and Friends series and Penguin comes a rhythmical celebration of the playful, loving companionship between a baby and a puppy. With its heart-warming, sleepy ending, this is a dream bedtime read and will make a gorgeous gift for young readers.

“Engaging textual repetition and exuberant, warm-hearted illustrations make this a lovely one to share with toddlers at any time of day. A delight through and through.” * Red Reading Hub *
