FETCH! with Ruff Ruffman: Show's Over

Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman

by Candlewick Press, Wgbh (Illustrator)

Ruff Ruffman, the lovably charismatic host of FETCH!, jumps from screen to page with a pair of readers that combine comical stories with real-life science.

Ruff Ruffman is having a bad day. First, his fancy pants get stolen, then he gets a message from his boss that seems to say he’s been fired! There’s only one way for him to find visit his boss in Australia. To do this, of course, Ruff turns his doghouse into a "green" vehicle (powered by cooking oil from a Chinese restaurant) and adds pineapples to keep it from sinking. Inspired by this Ruff-and-ready innovation, young readers are invited to create their own tinfoil boats, then load them with pennies to test how well they float.
