Hilfe, dieses Buch hat meinen Hund gefressen!

The concept is so playful and unexpected. I'm curious whether the author started with this wild idea or if it evolved during writing.

The dog's antics made me laugh out loud, but I wonder if young readers see it as funny or a little chaotic.

The artwork adds so much character—did the author have a hand in designing them, or were they developed alongside the writing?
