That's My Dog

Rating:
Summary: One Really Great Dog.....
Review: As our young narrator tells us at the beginning, "I've got a dog." And with that one little sentence, this proud owner is off and running, as he describes his wonderful pet in detail. He's a red dog, a big red dog and he's happy and muddy and smart. He's bouncy and slobbery and sometimes very sneaky. And he's stinky, "the most stinky dog I've ever met!" But most of all, we're told on the last page, "That's him!/That's my dog!/Isn't he a great dog!"..... Using color, changing type sizes, creative spacing, motion and energy, Rick Walton and Julia Gorton have authored an innovative and inventive little book about adjectives. The simple text builds on itself with each page turn until it practically explodes off the page, and is complemented by Ms Gorton's bold and expressive artwork as she uses the descriptive language to draw boy and dog. Perfect for pre-schoolers and emerging readers, That's My Dog is a little treasure of a book and a story kids will want to enjoy again and again.
