Otto the Top Dog

Winner, The Booksellers Association Readers Awards 2025, Picture Book Award

A sweet, humorous, beautifully illustrated tale of a kind-hearted sausage dog who just can't say no, from CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal winner Catherine Rayner.

This is Otto. Otto loves a lot of things, but nothing more than his beloved basket.

After Otto invites one of his friends to share his comfy basket, word quickly spreads around the neighbourhood. Soon he's sharing his cozy bed with all the dogs in the area! Before he knows it, everyone is having the best sleep in his beloved basket--everyone, but Otto! Will Otto ever get his basket back to himself? And will he still like it if he does?

Otto is a delightfully funny tale that will entertain young readers, while showing them that while it's fun to share, sometimes too much of a good thing isn't so great either!
