Wonderfully entertaining! April 13, 2008

My 19 month old son LOVES this book! I purchased it after reading such glowing reviews and noticed his great interest in doggies in our neighborhood. It is so enticing for him to see Scruff duck behind the animals as you open the pages but sometimes tries to grab him and I've had to tape him back twice. A simple task given the joy it brings to my son. He also likes the "moo", "nibble", and "baa" the animals say and finding the ball and mouse on each page. The large illustrations and cute theme of needing a bath ending with a good doggie in the bath makes me think this is a great toddler book.
 Enjoyable, but could be sturdier. March 18, 2008
I bought this book based on Amazon reviews for a first birthday. My grandson absolutely loved the book and was intrigued by the dog's disappearing, the bunnies popping up, and the duck's wings expanding. However, the pop-ups should be heavier cardboard. It wasn't long before Scruff, bunnies, and bubbles started to be ripped from the book. However, my grandson then invented a new game---sticking Scruff back into the pictures. I would have been willing to pay a little more for a more durable book.
Brings lift the flap to a whole new level May 29, 2007

My two daughters always loved lift-the-flap books, esp. Maisy books. But as they get older, finding the same old things behind the same old flaps gets boring. This book's flaps feature a disappearing dog. As you open the flaps first you don't see him, then you do, and then you don't again, as the dog slips behind a cow or under the window. Adds novelty enough to keep 5-year old "big sister" entertained as well. (Plus Mommy and Daddy.)
Nice text, as well...fun and easy for toddlers/pre-schoolers to "read along" with.
A cute story and a rather sturdy popup January 12, 2007

It's time for Scruffs bath. The water is ready but where is Scruff?
You get to follow his tracks through the pages as Scruff tries to hide somewhere on the farm.
As asked in the book "Has anybody here seen my dog, Scruff?" The answer "Baa-no, oink-no, nibble-no, moo-no, quack-no, squeak-no, Cock-a-doodle-do-no"
So where do we find Scruff? If only my dog would do what he did!
As far as pop-ups go, the pages are sturdy. The author understands children and little fingers as the popups are activated by turning rather then pulling strips.
