Doggone Dogs!
by Karen Beaumont pictures by David Catrow If you have a dog, know a dog, or live near a dog, you and your child are sure to love this book. The text simply roles off the tongue and is certain to make you smile as you read. Children love the rhyme and rhythm and are soon chanting along with you guessing the next word to be heard. What the kids will like most is the fact that it has the word "poop" carefully inserted within the rhyme scheme of the text...and yes, it's appropriate when used in this context. Add to this the fact that the book also does a great job of teaching verbs (action words) and counting and you can see why it’s such a doggone great choice! Trust me, this is a giggle as you read treasure.
