Carl the rottweiler saves the day when the teacher accidentally gets locked out of young Madeleine's daycare center. The dog calmly leads the children through the lessons for the day--music, snack, crafts, nap, etc.-- as the teacher desperately tries to get back into the school. Oil painting illustrations depict this nearly wordless story.
