I don’t do ‘sit!’
I don’t do ‘stay!’
But I will love you anyway.

From the celebrated creators of Kipper, Wibbly Pig, and Zoe and Beans comes a picture book to treasure. Dog is very badly behaved – he destroys everything, chases cars and won’t stop running away! But when he finds himself lost and alone there is one person he can count on.

Praise for Mick Inkpen:
‘You simply cannot fail to win smiles with a new book about Kipper.’ Daily Mail
‘The charmingly comical Inkpen, as always, hits the spot.’ Guardian

Praise for Zoe and Beans:
‘These books will become well-loved members of any child’s book collection.’ Carousel

I liked this book because it was about a dog and I love dogs. My favourite part was when his owner found him after he ran away .

This is so funny, the dog is a real mischief and it's realistic to hear the parents talking about how to make him behave. It's not too long so any children would enjoy it.
