Otis and his farm friends love to play hide-and-seek. Otis especially loves to be "It," finding his friends as they hide. Yet when the newest addition to the farm—a bounding puppy who can't sit still and has a habit of licking faces—tries to hide, he finds his attention wandering and is soon lost in the forest. Night falls and Otis, knowing his new friend is afraid of the dark, sets out to find him. There's just one problem: Otis is also afraid of the dark. His friend is alone and in need, though, so Otis takes a deep breath, counts to ten, and sets off on a different game of hide-and-seek. From the critically-acclaimed illustrator of The Little Engine that Could , Of Thee I Sing , and Otis . Review: Sweet story of friendship and facing one's fears. - I fell in love with Otis the tractor after reading the first book. And I've loved the sequels equally well. This is such a sweet story about friendship and facing one's fears for the sake of someone else. Both Otis and his friend, the puppy, are afraid of the dark, but when the puppy gets lost, Otis must face his fear or leave his friend alone in the dark all night. I also loved the idea at the end that those things we fear aren't so scary when we face them with those we love. The story is beautifully written and would be great for sharing. The large size makes it especially appropriate for sharing with larger groups. The illustrations are gorgeous. It's amazing how much expression that Long gives his characters, especially Otis and the puppy. The large beautiful illustrations clearly show the tender relationship between Otis and his friends and especially between Otis and the puppy. My favorite picture shows the puppy asleep with his head resting on Otis's front tire. Highly recommended. Review: Beautiful and Classic - Loren Long has a gift for telling sweet, timeless stories. His books feel like tales that I grew up with, and my parents grew up with, and probably my grandparents grew up with. My son enjoys them now, and I'm sure he will enjoy reading them to his children. Writing stories like that takes skill, talent and a particular gift. Before writing this review, I went back to read what I wrote for my review of the first Otis book. This was my first sentence: This is one of the books that I bought solely because I love, love, LOVE the artwork. That is mostly true of Otis and the Puppy, except now I knew that I would be getting a lovely story to go with the sumptuous and absolutely perfect illustrations. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #152,389 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #321 in Children's Farm Life Books #1,198 in Children's Transportation Books (Books) #1,199 in Children's Dog Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 354 Reviews | ## Images ![Otis and the Puppy - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ZwjIZdJFL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sweet story of friendship and facing one's fears. *by H***E on March 13, 2013* I fell in love with Otis the tractor after reading the first book.

The illustrations appeal to children, and adults also enjoy the nostalgic artwork. I personally always look forward to reading them to my preschool grandchildren, and even the ones with the shorter attention span give their whole attention to the stories. I find the stories to be wholesome and without agenda. It’s refreshing to find that today. We own Otis, Otis and the Tornado, Otis and the Kittens also. I highly recommended them. ## Frequently Bought Together - Otis and the Puppy - Otis - Otis and The Kittens --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/8249213-otis-and-the-puppy](https://www.desertcart.no/products/8249213-otis-and-the-puppy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-10-12*
