Hello, Tobi! - by Andrea Cáceres (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

The families--and dogs--Tobi meets at the park come in all sorts of shapes and colors and sizes, but this affable pup likes them all.

Every day, Tobi goes for walks with his family. At the park, he likes to say hello to everyone--small families with big dogs, big families with small dogs, tall families with tall dogs, short families with short dogs. There are families who look alike and families where everyone is different; families who are quiet, some who yell or sing loudly, and some who like to play together or create. Even when there are so many people and dogs at the park that Tobi can't tell which dog belongs to which family, he still loves them all! But there's always one family he loves the best . . . With welcoming, childlike illustrations and a breezy text, Andrea Cáceres invites us on a walk through the park that celebrates all kinds of families, with an endearing pup whose world is a friendly place indeed. Hello, Tobi!

Review Quotes

Cáceres's illustrations are two-dimensional and colorful, conveying effortlessly the loving feelings of the families depicted as well as their dogs. A sweet and deceptively simple story offers readers a new lens for looking at those they are familiar with as well as those who are different with an open heart.
