About This Book

A devoted dog spends his day desperately trying to get someone - anyone - to throw his ball after his favorite person leaves for school. From yoga mom to the baby to the grumpy cat, nobody is interested. Told almost entirely through expressive illustrations and a single repeated word, this comic-style picture book is a hilarious ode to canine obsession.

Why We Love This

The dog's over-the-top expressions are priceless, and kids love shouting 'BALL!' along with every page. A laugh-out-loud favorite for dog-loving families.
