An adorable look at the world through the eyes of a beloved puppy from multi-award-winning picture book legend Satoshi Kitamura.
Every day, Emily goes to school and leaves her puppy at home. But today, determined to find out what school is, he sets off on an adventure to go to Puppy School! The young dogs learn important skills such as scratching behind their ears, learning to sleep wherever they go, and most importantly, how to leave a scent trail - which comes in handy when our puppy finds himself separated from his friends...
Can he follow the trail that'll lead him back home to his Emily?
Satoshi Kitamura was born in 1956 in Tokyo. He says that when he was young he read comics and admits that these have had a great influence on his style. He says he was also influenced by anything visual from a tin of sardines to the fine art of the East and the West. He was not trained as an artist, but at the age of 19 began to do commercial work. From 1976-1979 he worked as a commercial artist in Japan, working as an illustrator for adverts and magazines. He moved to London in 1979 and worked mainly at designing greeting cards. He started illustrating for Andersen Press in 1981 after he had an exhibition of his work at the Neal Street Gallery in Covent Garden.
