Publisher's Synopsis
This is a larger sized version of the book that was previously published under the same title. There are minor changes in some of the text placement. Several of the illustrations have been re-worked. This is a humorous yet authentic story of the adventures Steve and Nancy have with their lovable dog, Raven. Raven is a lab mix dog who came to Nancy as a tiny puppy and grew into a strong, handsome, friendly, gentle dog whom EVERYBODY LOVES! Everywhere they go, people are attracted to Raven as though he were a movie star! This is the story of the misadventures they have when Raven rolls in yucky stuff while on a road trip. Raven is a uniquely lovable dog who somehow manages to find yucky, stinky things to roll in, such as a dead magpie and another animal's poop! Then when Steve and Nancy wash Raven, they happen to use a hair shampoo that leaves him very, very shiny! People are amazed at how shiny he is! Many dog owners have had similar misadventures with their pooches, so it is easy for children and adults to relate to and understand Raven's mishaps. The text is printed in a large size Blogger Sans Italic font for easy reading. This book is designed for young readers up through age 9, and for parents to read to children from age 2 and up.
