Angela Dominguez's new book "Santiago Stays"

Angela Dominguez’s new book “Santiago Stays”

San Francisco-based illustrator and writer Angela Dominguez will be TR!CKSTER’s featured artist starting September 3. The shop will showcase art from two of her three new children’s books: Let’s Go, Hugo! and Santiago Says. Dominguez will be in store on September 8 for a reception where she’ll be singing her books. Signings start at 4 p.m. with the reception officially kicking off at 5:30 p.m. Her newest of the new books is Santiago Says which will be released on Tuesday. The book’s description:

Santiago stays. He does not budge when offered a walk. He does not budge when offered a treat. Not even a hamburger can lure this stubborn French bulldog away from his post, much to the disappointment of the little boy trying to engage him. When the boy’s frustration bubbles over into a yell, it wakes the baby and the reader realises whom it was that Santiago was guarding in the first place. This familiar theme of an attention-seeking older sibling paired with the comically and characteristically stubborn French bulldog makes for a humorous and charming tale. All ends well with the boy and his dog playing together with the baby in a final joyous scene.
