"Scratch, Whack, Scratch," is Sigi's Florida initiation. Cracked eggs, slimy frogs and yucky worms, await his investigation. Missing friends and hidden brushes, babies to tend and Mama's fusses all add to the drama. This is the first book in the "Sigi" series of children's picture books about a real dog living in Florida. Using rhyme and repetition, Sigi relates his adventures, which are not unlike those of many children. Color, shape and number recognition figure prominently throughout. Items are hidden in the book to encourage the development of observation skills. The page numbers to locate the hidden items can be found on Sigi's website: www.TheAdventuresOfSigi.com.
