​"Bold, cartoon-style illustrations give Hound plenty of personality…
Hound’s humorous tale will work for canine-themed story times as well as give a boost to new or struggling readers. 

This funny hound should stick around." 
— Kirkus Reviews


HOUND WON'T GO, a rhyming picture book, was inspired by my hound dog, Tucker, a rescue from South Carolina. Ever since he was a pup, Tucker has done exactly what he wants to do. He decides where he wants to go, and when he wants to go. That means that sometimes he will stop, drop, and plop right in the middle of the road!
HOUND WON'T GO, illustrated by Meg Ishihara, is published by Albert Whitman & Company..
