Carl Books

According to Day, the inspiration for Good Dog, Carl came from a trip to Zurich, Switzerland. Day was looking through antique picture sheets for her postcards when she found an image of a dog left to guard a baby. Day's own dog, a Rottweiler named Toby, was the model for the book's main character, and since then other family Rottweiler's have been models for the books.

Carl's Christmas was a New York Times bestseller.
