About the Author:
Jan Fearnley grew up in South Shields, on Tyneside, the youngest of six children. After studying graphic design in Newcastle, she went on to become a primary school teacher in London before becoming a full-time writer and illustrator. Her picture books include Watch Out, Wilf! and Mr Wolf and the Three Bears, which won the Gold Award for Illustration from the Association of Illustrators.
From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 2–Fido Farnsworth, the world's most clever canine detective, has taken on a huge assignment. Although others have indicated that there is no such being, the sleuth is convinced that he can sniff out the perfect child. He confides that even though he has completed other challenging missions–such as locating the gold at the rainbow's end, flying pigs, and aliens–he is not at all sure what to look for. He knows that the perfect child is polite, cooperative, and clean, but also enjoys silly words, creepy-crawlies, and monkeying around. Just when Fido seems stymied, there is a rousing conclusion to all his hard work. Full-spread, full-bleed art shows a boy leading a large tiger by a pink ribbon (The perfect child is kind to animals), youngsters in silly attire (the perfect child has style), and other equally funny situations. Throughout, the furry white-and-brown dog stands on his hind legs, participating in the fun. Children will delight in the exuberant illustrations and lighthearted text.–Andrea Tarr, Corona Public Library, CA
