Rufus The Flying Dog: Adventures Unbound, by Mr David Michael McCune Jr

 

"In the realm of dreams, there's always more."

That might be the theme of this book, creating memories and the bonds that come from that. This highly imaginative and fun books takes Rufus the dog around the world and into fantasy realms and beyond. Oh, my, Rufus gets around. A good use of color and design depicts each place visited, whether Ancient Greece of the realms of unicorns and rainbow ponies. 

I'm not going to detail the places shown/visited as part of the fun is seeing them for the first time with Rufus. I'll simply say the illustrations are well done, full of life and color, and things to see. I can envision adults reading this with children and seeing what else they can spot besides Rufus and his plane. Rufus is definitely a magical dog, like all dogs, but one who dreams big. Readers are encouraged to do the same. Cliche or not, "the sky's the limit" and I don't use the word sky by accident, hint-hint. 

Not only is Rufus magical, but so is the world about us. Readers may be inspiried to dream about travel and find out more on their own. Start you engines, fasten you seat belt, and dream away. Thanks #NetGalley and #IndependentlyPublished for letting me fly high with Rufus. What a fun series. My Daisy dog gives this one four paws up and a tail wag.
