What is Harry the Dirty Dog about?

Harry, a white dog with black spots, despises baths. One day, he hides his scrubbing brush and embarks on an adventure, getting so dirty that he turns into a black dog with white spots. When he returns home, his family doesn't recognise him. To prove his identity, Harry digs up the hidden brush and willingly takes a bath, revealing his true self and reuniting with his loving family.
