Down Girl spends her days protecting her master, Rruff, from Here Kitty Kitty and the neighborhood squirrels. But when Rruff invites Down Girl on a road trip, Down Girl knows she’s in for an even bigger adventure. With her best friend, Sit, along for the ride, the fun really begins. These two dogs never know quite where they’re going, but one thing’s certain. When they hop into a car, they’re sure to drive everyone crazy!
The popular Down Girl and Sit stories were inspired by Lucy Nolan’s two setters, Nutmeg and Becky. The second book in the series, On the Road, recently won the Texas Bluebonnet Award, given to the children’s book that won the most votes from children in the Lone Star state.

Grade 1-3–Narrated from a dogs point of view, this easy chapter book covers the hilarious antics of two canine friends who puzzle through and explain life with their masters. Even though this title is a follow-up to Down Girl and Sit: Smarter Than Squirrels (Marshall Cavendish, 2004), it stands alone. In one of the four episodes, the pups enjoy a car ride as their ticket to see the world. In another, while camping with her human, Down Girl turns into Wild Dog and stalks squirrels, surmising that they may be the creatures she had chased away from her home in the city. Then, she runs when a rabbit (What kind of squirrel was this?) twitches its nose. A small black-and-white illustration appears on almost every page, supporting the texts humor. Anyone who has owned a dog can relate to these tales. Children will be delightfully challenged by the perspective and ask for more.–Blair Christolon, Prince William Public Library System, Manassas, VA
