Review: Siggy's young owner finds her dog napping in his bed, twisting and turning in the midst of a dream. A dream, it turns out, where Siggy is the star player on the Manchester United team! What plays out then, in this fun and action-packed picture book, is how Siggy and his team (all made up of different breeds of dogs) work together to win the championship game, with Siggy leading the pack! Kids who love sports or more active stories will love this especially, with full-color illustrations that are all over the page as the game gets closer and closer to its finish, Sarkany's stylishly exaggerated renderings of the dog players on both teams only adding to the feel of speed and movement to the story. Part of a series of picture books about Siggy, and even at my age will be checking out more! 4/5 stars
NOTE: I received a free ARC of this title from NetGalley and the publisher, in exchange for an honest review.
