Little Freddie Two Pants

(The Dog with Too Many Pants)

Illustrated by Lucy Ruth Cummins
A laugh-out-loud funny picture book about a dog who doesn't know how many pairs of pants to wear (or where to wear them!) by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Day the Crayons Quit.

One pair of pants? Two pairs? Three? How many pants should Little Freddie wear? And where should he put them? What about underpants? Where do they go?

In a book with text and art that are sure to induce giggles, Drew Daywalt and Lucy Ruth Cummins settle the age-old question: Do a dog’s front legs deserve pants, too?
Drew Daywalt is the author of many books, including the blockbuster #1 New York Times bestselling The Day the Crayons Quit and its sequels, illustrated by Oliver Jeffers; as well as The Legend of Rock Paper Scissors, illustrated by Adam Rex; Twinkle Twinkle Little Kid, illustrated by Molly Idle; The Wrong Book, illustrated by Alex Willmore; and many more. He lives in California with his wife, two children, and multiple pets. You can visit Drew Daywalt at DrewDaywalt.com.

Lucy Ruth Cummins is an author, illustrator, and art director of children’s books. For Little Freddie Two Pants, she just drew the pictures. She has written and illustrated several books of her own, including Stumpkin, Our Pool, and Dalmartian. Lucy frequently wears pants, but only one pair at a time. She was born in Canada, raised in upstate New York, and now lives with her little family in Brooklyn, New York. You can visit Lucy Ruth Cummins at LucyRuthCummins.com.
Praise for Little Freddie Two Pants:

"Any kid who’s experienced a case of the sillies when it’s time to get dressed will find a kindred spirit in Freddie . . . [Cummins's art makes] this as much a stage performance as it is a private goof between pals. What’s to be done with this pair of pants-wearers? Laugh with them, of course." —Publishers Weekly

"Daywalt’s inquisitive yet exasperated text combines with Cummins’ expressive, child-friendly art for an enjoyable, giggle-worthy storytime offering . . . An enjoyable romp about pushing boundaries while finding one’s own unique self." —Kirkus Reviews
