School Library Journal
K-Gr 3-A collection to delight young dog lovers. The prose selections are accompanied by their original illustrations (for example, Suie Stevenson's watercolors of Mudge are featured in Cynthia Rylant's "The Kitten"); the other selections are illustrated by energetic watercolors. While many of the offerings are familiar (Frank Asch's "The Last Puppy"; riddles like "What is a puppy after he's five months old? Six months old"), the thoughtful choices, clean type face, and pictures of canines at their most appealing combine to make a book that may well become tattered and dog-eared from multiple readings.-Kathleen Whalin, Greenwich Country Day School, CT
