This is definitely one of those ‘essential experiences’ of childhood. Children identify brilliantly with the naughty little dog through some big bold illustrations, simple text and lots of flaps revealing Spot’s many friends. A real classic first published 25 years ago but as fresh and contemporary now as it was then.
Where would the family library be without Spot the Dog's fun adventures? Eric Hill's pup is a true classic of pre-school literature. In this, the very first in the well-established series of Spot adventures, Where's Spot? introduces the lively little puppy and his playful world as Spot's mum Sally searches around the house for her cheeky little pup, with the young reader playing out the game of hide-and-seek by lifting the flaps on every page.
Eric Hill (1927 - 2014) was the creator of Spot – the phenomenally popular spotted dog. The year 2000 marked 20 years since the publication of the first book Where's Spot? and today the young pup has millions of fans all around the world.
In 1983, Eric Hill and his family moved to California. Eric remained involved in the development of all Spot projects at every stage.
