In this lyrical children's story, an adorable basset hound named Georgia O'Keeffe embarks on a whimsical adventure across the farm grounds, using her unique "no-nonsense nose" to explore the world around her. Though she labels her observations as "nonsense" or a "nuisance," her journey inspires young readers to find beauty in nature and art.

Georgia's adventure begins with a comical self-inspection of her long, floppy ears and tail, with humorous answers from her companions along the way. With Georgia's close encounter with an old sock, and her companions warn it'll make her stomach "rot," she just grumbles, "What nuisance. I just wanted to chew it up!” As she continues her exploration, experiencing beautiful butterflies and a scary patch of paint that follows her, Georgia dismisses them as nonsense and a nuisance.

Brandon Dorman’s fluid and familiar illustrations are comforting, seamlessly moving Georgia from scene to scene with a sense of ease. The vibrant use of color and shape brings each small discovery to life, perfectly complementing Carla Crane Osborne's fun and engaging writing style.

As the story closes, Georgia's world expands beyond her own paws. In the final and most profound moment, she encounters a horse so large she can't make out its entire being. The story concludes with a simple, mutual nose-touch of recognition, a touching end to a journey of curiosity.

Georgia's No-Nonsense Nose is a charming tale that encourages children to look at their surroundings with a fresh perspective. It's a delightful reminder that sometimes the most beautiful and meaningful discoveries are made simply by following your own unique curiosity.
