I Got Two Dogs: (Book and CD) [With CD]

John Lithgow

Nominee:North Carolina Children's Book Award -Picture Book (2011)
Fanny and Blue may not be the smartest dogs, and they may not be the best-behaved dogs, but they are definitely the most-loved dogs.

John Lithgow's bouncy song - in the book and on the accompanying CD - is based on his own family's two dogs. And Robert Neubecker's eye-popping illustrations capture the joy of all things dog.
