About The Book

From award-winning author/illustrator Frann Preston-Gannon comes this celebration of wiener dogs (dachshunds) in all their variety-perfect for dog-lovers of every age!

Simple rhyming text and boldly graphic, funny illustrations show off the comically lovable proportions of the dachshund, with its short legs and long body, spirited nature, and cheerful temperament. Author Frann Preston-Gannon reveals a surprising variety of wiener dog looks and shows kids all the fun these little dogs have as they visit the beach, cavort in the snow, dig in the garden, jump to the ceiling, and even ride a skateboard--all the while giving a lesson in opposites.

Raves and Reviews

“This is currently my daughter’s favorite book (she sleeps with it!), and one of mine too. Frann Preston-Gannon has created a fun and wonderful book about office it’s filled with great illustrations, vibrant colors, and unexpected opposites. The book is much larger than the average board book, which makes it a great lap book and allows one to really enjoy the pictures. I? will be eagerly purchasing other books by this author.”
