An exuberant counting story featuring delightful dachshunds in creative costumes, inspired by the real, and hilarious, dachshund parades, for fans of Can I Be Your Dog?.
Dozens of dachshunds in clever costumes are the stars of a woofing, wagging costume parade! How manydogs can you count? Dressed up as birds, bees, books, dinosaurs, and other delightful surprises, each new pair,
trio, and group adds to the excitement. When the parade is through, there's a joyous jamboree, complete with a
sing-along, bark-along dachshund song. Additional back matter highlights all the different sizes, coats, colors, and patterns of this beloved breed.
