AlbakiReads Editorial

Hugo’s wonderfully messy day

Hugo the pug measures a good day by the fun of chasing bees, splashing in puddles, and investigating skunks—not by staying clean. His garden adventure brings trouble of several distinctly muddy and smelly kinds, but none of it spoils his enjoyment. The contrast between an untidy day and Hugo’s cheerful satisfaction gives the story its simple comic premise.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A playful choice for children ages 4–8 who enjoy stories about dogs and animal antics.
  • Suitable for young listeners who like silly, messy adventures and a confident canine lead.

Book overview

From the New York Times bestselling duo behind the Tiny T. Rex series comes an adorable pug with an indomitable spirit--and a nose for trouble!

A perfect day for Hugo begins with a stretch and a yawn . . .
There are bees for chasing--go, Hugo, go!
Puddles for splashing--squish, Hugo, squish!
And skunks for smelling--sniff, Hugo, sniff!
But look out! Oh no, Hugo!
Hugo's adventure turns ouchie, stinky, and dirty. Does Hugo mind? NOT ONE BIT. Hugo really did have a perfect day.

Jonathan Stutzman and Jay Fleck have created an unforgettable character in Hugo. Readers won't be able to help exclaiming aloud as Hugo plays in his garden: "Go, Hugo, Go!"

"A doggone good day." - Kirkus Reviews

"VERDICT A recommended title for animal lovers and kids needing reassurance that the perfect day may not look quite perfect." - Kelcy Davis, School Library Journal
