Book SynopsisNanny Paws looks after Ally and Mae the only way she knows how—as a dog would. There’s nothing she wouldn’t do for her girls. She feeds them a hearty breakfast (cookies are best), picks up their toys (teddy bears fit nicely in freshly dug holes), and even walks them to school (running them there is fun too). But one Tuesday, Ally and Mae come home sick, and it’s up to Nanny Paws to take care of them…in her own special way.Trade Review“Move over, Clifford the Big Red Dog and Good Dog, Carl: Nanny Paws knows exactly what to do for the kids in her care…Wahman's watercolor, pencil, and digitally created images effectively capture Nanny Paws’s perpetual motion and the twins’ adoration of her despite the chaos she leaves in her wake. Ally and Mae have brown skin and wear their black hair in two puffballs. A delightful tale for dog lovers with less-than-perfect pooches.” —Kirkus Reviews “The energetic poodle is constantly moving, and readers can follow her trail of gnawed socks as she concludes the day’s supervision with reading, bath time, and the final nighttime snuggle. Colorful illustrations done digitally and with active detailed pencil and watercolor demonstrate the lively personalities of the characters.” —Booklist “The juxtaposition of the story line with the silly, inviting illustrations makes for a romping tale that amusingly illustrates home life with a good-hearted, but less-than-perfectly behaved dog. An engaging picture book that will work well for storytime and one-on-one sharing. Children familiar with havoc-wreaking pooches will appreciate this playful tale most.” —School Library Journal “Even if you don’t have a dog, you will feel like you do and want to read it again and again. Wendy’s illustrations are charming and they are a great example of how to let the pictures filled in the text to create a rich layered book.”—Writing and Illustrating
