Big Dog and Little Dog are canine companions who stick together through thick and thin. In this, their first bilingual adventure, Big Dog and Little Dog are hungry! And as any good dog knows, friends who chow down together, nap together. With deceptively simple text, graphic illustrations, and tongue-in-cheek humor, Captain Underpants creator Dav Pilkey brings the joys of childhood friendships to life through his tales of two lovable dog pals. This Green Light Reader will help young children build basic reading skills in two languages (which are clearly set in different colors), while also tickling their funny bone. Parents and kids looking for skill-building activities will find a bonus activity section at the back of the book.
