Marc Notes: A Paula Wiseman book.; Illustrations and simple text follow a dog as it chases a ball at the beach. Publisher Marketing: Experience the simple joy of a dog's day at the beach in this vibrant picture book from the acclaimed author-illustrator of "Nest," which the "New York Times Book Review "said was "certain to please aesthetically minded children and adults" and that "Shelf Awareness "called "a quiet masterpiece." As with her debut picture book, "Nest," "Hurley lets her bright, clean illustrations do her storytelling, limiting the text on each page to a single, evocative word" ("Publishers Weekly") in this delightful depiction of a dog's day at the beach and the joy a simple ball can bring. With minimal prose and illustrations that echo the patterns of nature, "Fetch "is a story of the thrill of adventure and the joy of returning home. Review Citations:
