Harry is the not-too-happy recipient of a handmade sweater, and what makes matters worse is that it’s a sweater with a pattern of roses. Harry does everything he can think of to get rid of that sweater. But when it seems like he’ll never lose the sweater, an unexpected visitor helps him solve his problem…

This is an irresistible story featuring a classic picture book character, especially perfect for young dog lovers and fans of Harry the Dirty Dog. Harry the Dirty Dog has been recognized by the National Education Association as an all-time top-100 children's book. It has also been welcomed by a new generation at home, as Betty White's 2020 reading of the story on StorylineOnline has been viewed more than 8 million times.

For more fun with Harry the Dirty Dog, don't miss Harry by the Sea and Harry and the Lady Next Door. As Children's Books and Their Creators said about all three books: "There is a droll, seemingly effortless union of art and text in the Harry stories, a delicious mastery of everyday foolishness."

A Caldecott Honor book about a little boy’s curiosity during a summer storm, poetically written by celebrated author Charlotte Zolotow and with stunning illustrations by Margaret Bloy Graham.

This beautifully crafted story is perfect to pull out and enjoy on rainy days and for classroom discussions on weather patterns.

It is a day in the country.

Quiet, dusty, expectant.

Everything is hot and still.

Then the hazy sky begins to shift.

Something is astir, something soundless.

Shadows move over the world.

And then it happens!

Shooting through the sky like starlight…

What was that?

This high-quality Spanish-language book can be enjoyed by fluent Spanish speakers as well as those learning the language, whether at home or in a classroom.

Harry es un perrito blanco con manchas negras al que todo le gusta... excepto bañarse. Así que un día antes del baño, Harry se escapa. Se pasa el día, jugando en la calle y pronto está tan sucio que se convierte en un perro negro con manchas blancas. Ahora Harry tiene un problema: ¡su propia familia no lo reconoce!

Now in paperback with recolorized illustrations, here is the timeless classic about a lovable spotted dog who will do anything to avoid a bath. “Harry is a hero to go straight to a child’s heart.” (The New York Herald Tribune) “Another funny bone tickling charmer by Gene Zion and Margaret Bloy Graham that will make youngsters and their parents giggle.” (Kirkus Reviews)
