Meet Tinkles, Gracie-pants, Lovie, Fritzie, Weenie, Walter, Comet, Ike, and Jack. It's time for these pups to let their owners dress them up in costume! But one of them is shy. Another is too jumpy. Do any of them really want to join the fun? Once they see the silly and cute duds they're wearing, they will! But they need to hurry - the dog parade won't wait forever. And it's not to be missed!

"Fans of David McKee's Elmer's Special Day (Andersen, 2009) and the story-line sequence of animals on parade will find a contrast here with Joosse's simple array of dog breeds expressing their opinions about the situation, without a traditional plot."-School Library Journal

"[An] enthusiastic collection of light verse. . . . Like an actual parade, the exuberant atmosphere-confetti, balloons, costumes, and all-is the main draw."-Publishers Weekly
