Um þessa rafbók

The first in a paw-some full-color chapter book series about a hotel for dogs from authors Donna Gephart and Lori Haskins Houran and illustrator Josh Cleland.

Welcome to the Woofmore, where the water bowls are always full and there’s kibble on every pillow! Rufus and his boss, Ms. Coco, work hard to make every guest feel like a VIP (Very Important Pooch).

It’s the grand opening of the hotel, and Rufus and Ms. Coco want everything to be pawfect. Especially for their VIP guest, movie star Greta Garbark. How can Rufus keep the pup-parazzi from hounding Ms. Garbark? And what will Ms. Coco do when a (very itchy) problem hits the hotel?

With adorable illustrations and hilarious text, this early chapter book series will hit young dog lovers smack in the funny bone!
