A mother dog finds eight other animals hiding around the house before finding her lost puppy. Flaps conceal the animals. "Very young children will join in the search for Spot, with his mother Sally, as she encounters other animals along the way hidden behind the flaps. Each double spread has a door to open or a covering to lift. The large ink-and-water color illustrations abound with good humor." Spot's mother searches for the irascable puppy at dinnertime. Where could he be?
