Summary: Basic Language Vocabulary/Structures for the Beginner Reader
Review: "Go, Dog. Go!" presents a simple, although somewhat disjointed, story which slowly, gradually builds toward "a big dog party" at the end. It is filled with basic, fundamental adjectives (big, little), colors (black, white, blue, red, green, yellow), numbers (one, two, three), prepositions (in, out, on, up, down, over, under, around, to), verbs (go, stop), and nouns (night, day). It is a delightful 61 page book for the beginner/elementary reader.

Summary: My 3 year olds favorite book!
Review: One of my favorites from my childhood, I had to get it for my three year old. We now read it nearly every night. It quickly became his favorite book. There is something very comforting about a very simple book from your past. My son can recognize a few of the words from this book already! I surprised my husband by showing how our son could "read" the first three pages of the book. He loves to sit and look at it himself and tell the story. Nice bright pictures make it fun to look at.

Summary: Great book for the car
Review: My daughter started liking this book around age 2. Now at every traffic light I hear "Stop dogs stop the light is red" and etc. It is a typical Dr.Suess book, and they're just classics! I just bought a bunch of board books for a shower gift, and this book was one in the bunch.

Summary: Umm...
Review: This book is horrible! It isn't realistic at all! Dogs can't talk and drive cars!Just kidding! This was and still is one of my favorite children's books. I learned to read, reading this book and others like it. I also learned to draw cars. Unlike the dog in the book, I actually did like the lady dog's hat! One of the (lesser) reasons I couldn't wait to have children, was so that I could fill up my bookshelf with this and other cherished childhood classics.

Summary: My favorite children's book
Review: My all time favorite children's book. Big Dog. Little Dog. My son's first word was "dog". I loved this book when my teens were little and my little one (currently 6 ½ months) will sit through most of this book (sometimes all) when I read it to her now. It is a great "first reader" as the words are common and the pictures offer help in that when one reads "One big dog going in." and "Two little dogs going out." the picture shows just that. There are red, yellow and green trees, dogs "over the water", dogs "under the house" and lots more word pictures that are fun to read and easy to learn by. The three dogs having a party on a boat at night is just about my favorite line but I still get the most fun when it is night and the dogs are supposed to be asleep and one little one is laying in bed with his eyes wide open. Simply put every child should have this book in their library and reading it to a child should start at a very young age. My highest possible recommendation.

Summary: A great children¿s book...
Review: A few weeks ago, a friend of mine purchased this book for my son, after he fell in love with it at their house. My wife had previously told me about this book, mentioning that my 3-year-old son loved it. After having this book for a few weeks, this is still a book that my son requests regularly. On an educational note, this book is a stealth teacher. It teaches, red and green, stop and go, up and down, over and under, asleep and awake, and even tries to touch on manners some. I highly recommend this book for parents that have children 2 - 3 years old.

Summary: A Most Loved Prereader
Review: This book has been taped and taped so many times because it is so loved. My Kinder boy loves reading it to my preschooler. Of course the very favorite part is viewing the dog party at the end, which I remember as a child. The simple illustrations offer visual clues to the wording of the book. After reading this a few hundred times, your 3 year old will "read" it to you. A good one!

Summary: Get up and go
Review: ...The book is simply a metaphor for life, as we see dogs running, playing, relaxing, spear-fishing, diving, driving like mad (hmmm, a none-too-subtle early 1960s promotion of America’s car culture – or perhaps criticism thereof?), but in the end, enjoying themselves and experiencing life to the fullest, as in the final big, dog party on the treetop. This is Eastman’s exhortation for us to get off the couch, go out and suck the marrow out of life. Of course, this is not a manifesto for unbridled self-fulfillment at the expense of others, as seen in the “bird-crossing” episode, i.e. don’t step on anyone’s toes. Also, the hat interludes show that honesty and sincerity are always the best policies in interpersonal relationships. Very nice lessons for life presented in a simple format with gripping illustrations.

Summary: Party hat party!
Review: I'm five years old. You know what happened to me? My mom bought the Go Dog Go book and I read it all by myself! I loved it! I loved all of the parts and I love dogs! I especially loved the party part. And where she says, "Do you like my hat?" And he says, "I do like it! I like your party hat!" I'm going to be the dog with the party hat for Halloween next year. It's a great book. You should buy it.
