A #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER - A PBS News Hour Best Book of the Year

Two-time Caldecott Medalist Sophie Blackall's follow-up to her bestselling If I Was a Horse explores the challenges of first friendships through imaginative play.

If we were dogs, what kind would we be?
I'd be a big dog! And you'd be little dog.
Woof!

Join two friends as they bark and growl, woof and howl--and maybe even quack--in a romp that makes room for everybody's ideas.

Sophie Blackall unleashes a marvelous game of pretend that explores navigating friendship and celebrates boundless imagination in this wonderful companion for her national bestseller If I Was a Horse.
"Blackall's impeccably detailed, highly expressive illustrations add heart and humor to this tale about the endless paw-sibilities of pretend play--and the importance of speaking up for oneself." The Horn Book (starred review)

"My favorite picture book this year ... Parents love reading [If We Were Dogs] to children. The children are going crazy for this book." --Ann Patchett, award-winning author and owner of Parnassus Books, TN

"Perfect for every underdog who wants to have a say." Kirkus Reviews
