Pooch's New Raincoat is a board book for very young children. It comes with colorful stickers (oh, the little ones will love them!) and a small plush Pooch that is just the right size for a child's diaper or tote bag.

It's raining and the wind is blowing. Pooch needs cheering up. He puts on a raincoat and heads for the park where his friends Bird, Bunny, Chipmunk, and Duck each give him a little something to brighten his day (leaf, sunflower, red strawberry, feather, heart that can be affixed to the plush toy Pooch) When the rain stops, Pooch heads home where a cute new dog friend gives him a kiss. Pooch realizes that even if it's raining, he has friends who care for him and it's really a grand day after all.

The concept of the board book (written in rhyme), the plush toy and stickers makes reading Pooch's New Raincoat interactive and will drawn children in and excite them. The illustrations are simple, colorful and attractive to children.
