Chowin', swimmin' droolin' coolin'; Hot Dog dogs are cool!

Stuck on a desert island with your kids? You better have Hot Dog with you! ³Hot dog, silly dog, chowing down some chili dog.² Got the beat? Mott keeps it going with a simple, fun, poetic pace; choosing words and pictures to delight eyes and ears. You and your children will see pictures of dogs with slobbering lips, bespectacled eyes, clownish headgear, as well as just plain dogs, joyous to be alive and acting silly. Each page is double fun because the computer-enhanced backgrounds are ,well, ZANY! Actually one half of a wild duo of books, Hot Dog is the companion to Cool Cat, Mott¹s other whimsical photographic salute to animal silliness and saintliness. The book ends (as does Cool Cat) with a loving, warm glance at the people/doggie (or people/kitty) relationship.
