Spot's Baby Sister - Hardcover

Eric Hill was born in North London and lived there for many years. He started his artistic career as an art studio messenger and from there went on to become a cartoonist and eventually an art director at a leading advertising agency. In 1978 Eric made up a story about a small puppy to read to his son at bedtime and Spot was born. The success of his first bestselling lift-the-flap classic Where's Spot? in 1980 convinced him to become a full-time author. Eric currently resides in France.

Spot, that ever-popular brown-and-yellow puppy, is back, and his parents have a surprise for him: a baby sister named Susie. Soon after Susie's arrival, Helen (a blue hippo) and Tom (a green alligator) arrive and want to play with Spot and Susie. But Susie runs off with Spot's new bone and disappears. Tom, Helen and Spot search all over for her, and eventually find her under the table, sound asleep. Just when the three settle down to read a book, Susie wakes up and is ready to play again. Hill's other Spot books ( Where's Spot? and Spot Goes to School , among them), with their bright colors and simple storylines, are perfect for very young children, and thisnewest tale is no exception. The introduction of Susie further extends Spot's close-knit community, and siblings will easily identify with the arrival of a new family member. Ages 1-3.
