Award-winning author Kate McMullan tells the story of Bulldog, a lovable pup who is searching for a job, with the help of his friends.

Everyone is on their way to work in Bulldog`s Big Day-everyone, that is, except Bulldog. As his friends help him find a job, Bulldog`s good intentions clash with his hilarious clumsiness. He crashes a ladder through Giraffe`s firehouse roof, discovers his fear of heights when he tries to wash windows with Spider, sends Moose`s canvas flying when he sneezes, and tries Elephant`s patience when he`s caught reading the books he`s supposed to shelve. In the end, Bulldog finds out that you have to love your job in order to be good at it, and he opens a bakery with his friends` support.

Bulldog`s Big Day is chock-full of comical characters presenting different jobs for inquisitive youngsters. Readers get a glimpse of the inner workings of a fire station, a bookstore, a sign store, and a window washing company. But in the end, it is Bulldog`s love of making cookies that helps him find out what his perfect job will be. Kate McMullan`s simple words paired with Pascal Lemaitre`s countless objects create an exciting new picture book about the people and places around us.

  • In a world where everyone else's day is defined by the exciting "hustle-bustle" of work, diminutive, unemployed Bulldog is odd pooch out. Apprenticeships with his pals Spider the window washer, Moose the sign painter, Giraffe the fireman, and Elephant the bookseller are washouts (he's afraid of heights, and he'd rather read than shelve books). But his friends notice a professionally rewarding talent that Bulldog has overlooked: he makes fabulous cookies. On the final pages, Bulldog's Cookie Bakery is a smashing success: "Outside, everyone is yakking and laughing and waiting in a long, long line.... All the exciting hustle-bustle has come to him!" McMullan (I Stink!) and Lemaitre (Do Not Open This Book!) have put together an appealing package reminiscent of a Richard Scarry book. Each of Bulldog's misadventures unfolds on its own spread (with a chapter's worth of story on each), the ample text is succinct and bouncy, and the predominantly spot illustrations make judicious use of slapstick humor. The lesson is one worth learning: the road to finding one's professional bliss isn't always easy, but the end result is well worth the occasional pothole. Ages 3-7. (Feb.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC.
