Stanley’s thrown his party — and braved his wild ride. Now Stanley and his pals embark on an adventure that makes sea-dogs of them all!#It’s picnic time in the park — but not for Stanley.

After he’s told to “get,” Stanley wanders down by the river where he runs into Alice, Nutsy and Gassy Jack.#Soon their keen noses lead them to a delicious treat on a small boat with no people in sight. When the boat’s mooring comes loose, they float away with the current down the river, under a bridge and then out to sea! It’s a scary new world where the sky stretches in every direction and big waves crash. The dogs know that when you’re Outside, sooner or later you always come to a fence. When suddenly through the mist they see what looks like a very tall fence, they know they’ve come to the End of Outside! But what kind of fence is this?

AWARDS & REVIEWS

Reviews

"Super illustrations ..."

Vancouver Sun, 01/03/2008

"Linda Bailey’s endearing, if disobedient, dog is back ...This is a delightful addition to the ongoing adventures of a lovable, if goofy, cast of characters."

City Parent, 01/03/2008

"Bailey’s humor, sometimes subtle and other times overt, comes through on every page ... Slavin’s splendid acrylic paintings ... teem with detail and texture that give a 3-D effect ...Three “arfs”... for this sensory-rich adventure."

School Library Journal, 01/04/2008

"... Stanley’s waggish appeal will win over readers young or grown."

Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review, 01/02/2008

"... third in the rollicking series about a goofy dog whose addled antics make for first-class entertainment."

Quill & Quire, 01/02/2008
