by Francesca Simon (Author), Francesca Simon (Author), James E. Lucas (Illustrator)

Synopsis

Little Yellow Dog sniffs at it, creeps up on it, tries to chase it -- and finds himself whizzing down the road on it. What is it? A skateboard, of course! And isn't he pleased to have an audience! James Lucas's witty, fast-moving cartoons illustrate a story by Francesca Simon that packs lots of comic action into almost no words. You have to smile at Little Yellow Dog as he explores the urban world he lives in, and meets a series of characters as delightful as himself.
