Brett and his dog Herman walk to the library, and on the way they learn about figures of speech such as "growing like a weed" and "selling like hotcakes" from neighbors, merchants, and other people in the community.

An autistic boy named Brett struggles with the questions "who," "what," "when," "where," "why" and "how" when he loses his shoe.

Herman's adventures will help your child discover the difficult concept of prepositions such as up, in, under, and behind by using colorful illustrations.
