This Is the Way in Dogtown

Sing along to this catchy rhyme, set to "Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush", and discover what the residents of Dogtown get up to in this delightful book of first experiences.

This is the way we brush our teeth, brush our teeth, brush our teeth,
This is the way we brush our teeth, early in the morning.

See the dogs brushing their teeth, getting dressed, going to school, eating lunch, going swimming, and much more before the day is done and it's time for bed.

This book's charming artwork, by talented illustrator Jade Huang, is rich with detail as it creates a whole town of dogs going about their days.

Ending as night falls over dogtown and the dogs are bathed and in bed, this book's lilting rhymes make it perfect for a pre-bedtime read.
