About the Author

Eric Hill (1927–2014) started his artistic career as an art studio messenger and from there went on to become a cartoonist and eventually an art director at a leading advertising agency. In 1978, Eric made up a story about a small puppy to read to his son at bedtime, and Spot was born. The success of his first bestselling lift-the-flap classic, Where's Spot?, in 1980 convinced him to become a full-time author, and his Spot books have been enjoyed by children around the world ever since. In 2008 he was awarded an OBE (Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) for services to children's literacy.

Editorial Reviews

PreS-Gr 1-- Another Spot book with large print, dialogue balloons, uncluttered illustrations, and flaps that are easy to lift. The younger crowd will identify with the dog's activities (playing with his ball, on the swings, and with his friends) ; early readers, especially reluctant ones, will also enjoy the interactive format and the minimal text. An additional title that's sure to be popular. --Ruth Smith, formerly at Chicago Public Library
