Henry and Mudge and the Best Day of All

Wake up, Mudge! It’s Henry’s birthday! At first, the floppy dog wants to keep sleeping, but when Henry mentions birthday cake, and ice cream, Mudge’s big brown eyes pop open.

Join Henry, Mudge, and their friends on a sunny May day filled with balloons, games—and surprises for the little boy and his big dog. This birthday party is every child’s dream, especially when it includes crackers from the sky!

Cynthia Rylant’s Henry and Mudge books are favorite choices of young readers and their parents across the country. Each one in the series offers listeners a chance to visit a charmed world, where everyday things take on special meaning for the loveable dog and his best friend.
