Get to know Carl!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
My sister collects this series of mostly wordless picture books. The artwork is eye catching and the stories always good for a giggle. The stories all have a similar thread: mom has to step out for a bit and Carl is charged with taking care of the daughter. Carl's initiates all kind of messy, naughty fun for his young master, but the mess is always cleaned up before mom gets home. Great P.R. for rotties!

In this title in the ever-popular series about Carl the trusty Rottweiler, his owner and Madeleine leave Carl to nap for the afternoon while they run some errands. While they're gone, Carl has a number of adventures of his own, including sharing cookies at the bakery, helping out the town vet, participating in a magic show, saving puppies from a fire, and finally running back home to arrive right before his owner. Childen will enjoy an inside joke as Carl runs into Madeleine and her mother at every turn, although the mother somehow never notices the giant dog. Day dazzles again with her traditional watercolor artwork, and the many details in the illustrations lend themselves well to many re-readings. This is a charming addition to the Carl stories and will be enjoyed by children two and up.
Another great Carl book!
