"Dog Loves Books" is ArtsPower’s newest production and portrays the irresistible Dog, who loves everything about books -- so much so that he decides to open his own bookstore.
Dog decides that the best way to sell books is to act out all kinds of fun stories for his customers -- everything from dancing dinosaurs to funny fairy tales. His customers cannot help but get into the act, too! How could Dog’s bookstore not be a huge success?
