¿Puedes encontrar el perro de Doug? / Can You Find Doug’s Dog? (Spanish and English Edition)

Written by Jane Caston and Illustrated by Carmen Saldaña
Doug can’t find his dog, and he needs YOU to help him! Follow Doug’s goofy clues as you pat, tickle, and talk to the dogs on each page to figure out which one is his. Is Doug’s dog big or tiny? Fluffy or spotty? With every guess, you get closer to a silly surprise ending that shows what Doug’s dog really looks like… and why he went missing in the first place. This bilingual Spanish edition is packed with giggle‑worthy pictures and hands‑on fun—perfect for an energetic read‑aloud.
