Classification: 
Fiction


This book by Yates is likely to inspire almost any child to take up paper, pencil, and ink and start drawing. The main character in question is aptly named Dog. Dog opens up mysterious door on a page. He then creates a marvelous stick figure world of people, doodles, and a story to accompany the drawings. The book has satisfactory and somewhat expected conclusion. This would be a great addition to a school library, home library, or an art teacher's inspiration corner.
