Synopsis

Woof! Meet Roy, an adorable white dog who is wild about digging, digging, digging in the dirt!David Shannon's picture books are loved for their endearing characters and laugh-aloud humor, and Roy's charming naughtiness will remind readers of what they love about Shannon's No, David!, a bestselling Caldecott Honor Book about a boy with a nose for trouble.Although it's a smelly task for those who have to constantly bathe him, Roy's happiness centers on his very favorite thing-dirt-and from sunrise to sunset, he burrows in it, rolls in it, and digs up buried treasures. There's terror in every terrier, and when Roy runs into the house after being sprayed by a skunk, he faces the dreaded bathtub. Readers will see themselves in Roy's childlike delight each time he makes the biggest mess ever.

Goodreads review by Benjamin on January 24, 2024

This book was an excellent find. I picked it up at some used-book sale or another and had it sitting there looking intriguing on my shelf for a year or two, for some reason under the impression that it was specifically about the mysteries of the cosmos, rather than an encyclopaedic tome on all thing......more

Goodreads review by Nathan on April 28, 2021

This is a 1981 Reader's Digest book that Beth had as a kid, and liked looking at the pictures. There really are a lot of cool illustrations in here, including a hellmouth from the Hours of Catherine of Cleves. As far as the text goes, it's one of those overviews of the paranormal that were in vogue......more
