Dogs Don't Do Dishes

Author: Rebecca LisleIllustrator: Tim Archbold

Here is an inventor called Tom, who has just invented a dog. The bosses at the institute are not all that impressed: ‘Dogs have already been invented’, but then they never get to know him – for he is not just an invention, but has a heart too. The first family he meets are pretty dreadful people, which Archbold’s hilarious illustrations make clear to us.  How he then ends up happily with a girl who really appreciates him makes a gently humorous story which will appeal to dog owners both real and potential.
