The Adventures of Oliver and Elizabeth: Woodville (Full Color Version)

What seemed to be a boring, rainy afternoon for two delightful Dalmatian dogs quickly reveals an extraordinary adventure to a marvelous new world. Oliver and Elizabeth, the two Dalmatians, find a curious opossum emerging from a hole in their backyard. The hole is in reality a tunnel in which the befriended opossum leads the two dogs down into and through to the other side. Once they climb out of the tunnel they discover a vast and beautiful forest. The opossum takes them into the forest and to a ramp that spirals upward around a colossal tree to a city in the tree tops; a safe haven for animals, Woodville. Woodville is ruled by a great bald eagle known as King Opulent. Under his rule is a wide variety of animals living together in a peaceful community. However, one animal Woodville does not have is dogs. Not only are there no dogs in Woodville, dogs are believed to be myths. Once Oliver and Elizabeth follow the opossum into the city they quickly become an overwhelming attraction. They encounter many animals, including one untrusting skunk. Through their sticky interaction with the skunk they learn that dogs have quite a negative reputation, as depicted in the well-known Woodville fairytales. Oliver and Elizabeth can only hope, in this "peaceful community," that this gigantic mob of animals will show them some compassion and allow them to return home safely (Full Color Version)

5I wanna go to Woodville!  Feb 04, 2010
By Dennis Beltran "Dennis Beltran"
This was a great book about a most unlikely adventure! In such a simple style we learn complex truths about each other through animal friends! We are sometimes misjudged and need to prove ourselves, we all get scared and we all make mistakes. The art is so fun it makes you want to tag along to Woodville next time Oliver and Elizabeth go! I wonder what their future adventures will bring!

5Animal lovers children's tale  Jan 16, 2010
By John L. Roque "RoqueStar"
I was immediately impressed by the artwork in this wonderful children's tale of two Dalmatians amazing journey to a hidden and undisturbed world of speaking animals united in their fear of canines and the pathway of learning and experiences that lead to an understanding of peace and harmony. I currently teach in Georgia and my 3rd grade class loved this tale of overcoming conscious and unconscious biases set in the animal world.
