This book was very cute and allowed for multiple different stories. It is a good book to use for multiple years at different ages because there are so many things to find in each picture. ( )

That wandering feline Spot, who first appeared in illustrator Henry Cole's Spot, the Cat, returns in this second wordless picture-book. As Spot and her human boy look out the window, they each see something different: the boy sees a girl posting notices about her lost dog, while Spot sees Dot, the dog in question. Cat and boy each set out to help, and the visual narrative follows them - mostly Spot chasing Dot - throughout the city...

Like its predecessor, I found Spot & Dot charming, with its detailed pencil illustrations and its fun search-and-find structure, in which the eponymous cat and dog chase through the city. My favorite drawing was actually the one at the beginning of the book, showing Spot and Dot curled up together and taking a nap, although that's not something that ever occurs, during the course of the story. Recommended to Henry Cole fans, to anyone who enjoyed Spot's first adventure, and to anyone who enjoys wordless picture-books. ( )

Book description
In Henry Cole’s vivid wordless picture book Spot, the Cat, readers joined Spot on a journey through a city that began with him following a bird outside his window.

This time, a dog named Dot draws Spot from his window. As we follow Spot and Dot on their wordless journey, we quickly realize that it’s Dot the dog who is missing this time, and Spot is trying to get her back home. We follow these two on a different journey through the city as they weave in and out of a bakery, a library, a busy park, and more. And with a surprise twist at the end, we realize that “home” for both cat and dog was never very far away.
