"Open Me … I’m a Dog" is more than a dog and more than a book. After all, how many picture books have furry pages or a tail? And how many dogs have such wonderful prose and pictures in their middle?

The adventures of this poor pup, who moves from one mishap to another, will delight youngsters and their grownups. But what else would you expect from a picture book by Art Spiegelman — yes, THAT Art Spiegelman, the legendary author of "Maus," for which he won a Pulitzer Prize?

In the interest of full disclosure, I received this book from NetGalley and TOON Books in exchange for an honest review.

Open Me...I'm a Dog is an adorable picture book told from the perspective of a dog who has been bewitched to be a book. The story was delightful and weird, and the illustrations from Art Spiegelman were fantastic. I would definitely recommend this one to kiddos who want a little more magic in their lives!

Thanks to NetGalley, Art Spiegelman, and TOON Books for the chance to review this advance copy!

An adorable picture book showing a dog that has been taken over a book. Is that possible? Is it a book? Is it a dog? Can you read it? Pet it? What a fun read.
