Author Adam Glendon Sidwell:
In between books, Adam Glendon Sidwell uses the power of computers to make monsters, robots and zombies come to life for blockbuster movies such as Pirates of the Caribbean, King Kong, Pacific Rim, Transformers and Tron. After spending countless hours in front of a keyboard meticulously adjusting tentacles, calibrating hydraulics, and brushing monkey fur, he is delighted at the prospect of modifying his creations with the flick of a few deftly placed adjectives. He really enjoyed writing 81,854 less words in his new picture book FETCH than he wrote in his first EVERTASTER novel, and hopes that you will like the ones he picked. Besides, FETCH has pictures.
Adam has also been rightfully accused of writing the upcoming novel CHUM.

My Review:
Just read Fetch with my boys, who are dog lovers, and they were hysterically laughing at some of the antics displayed. They wanted me to quickly turn the pages, and each pointed to show the other one what the dog he saw was doing. Then we had to go back slowly over each page for them to devour again.
The drawings are delightful, and the boys had a hard time agreeing to disagree which activity they liked the best. If you want to have a great dialogue with your little one, this is the book for you. So I asked them “where do the dogs come from?” You will love their answers after reading this sweet, colorful, and eye catching little book.
Don’t miss out on this great sharing experience with your child, you won’t be disappointed!
I received this book from Kathy at I Am A Reader, Not A Writer Blog Tour, and was not required to give a positive review.
