Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
When Quantz stops to pet a big red dog, what does he get for his effort? Fleas. With whimsical, retro illustrations and a hilarious text that children will be itching to hear again and again, this wonderfully Steigish tale concludes with an unforgettable flea circus. Full color.
A cumulative tale in which Quantz, who is repaid in fleas for scratching a stray dog, makes a series of trades that turn one person's burden into the next one's joy and ultimately brings them all together for a circus performance.
