The Great Gracie Chase: Stop That Dog! is one of our favorite books, owing to a good basic story by Cynthia Rylant and some especially exhilarating illustrations by Mark Teague. It revolves around a pooch named Gracie who cherishes her quiet home life, only to have it disturbed by a bevy of house painters who arrive unexpectedly one morning. She's put out of the house so they can work, and she rebels by taking half the town (including the painters) on a mad chase through the streets.
