4 1/2 Almost Every Page Picture Perfect

I hate being the curmudgeon here, but this book got one picture wrong. But let's talk about what's right first. You get six two-page spreads here, on the right, an ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE picure of a puppy (or puppies), and on the left, against a vibrantly colored background, a big black word that describes the emotion shown by the dog. So, you "happy" facing a page of 3 smiling (OK The one exception to the format described above is the last 2-page spread, and it's another winner. With the word "family" above them, we see the only photo taking up the entire two pages: It's a mom and dad Spaniel with 9 (nine!) CUTE little Spaniel. This is a fun, sturdy board book for the baby who loves dogs, with all photos by Jane Burton, and published by Simon and Schuster.

Excellent Book!

Both of my children LOVED this book at about 9-10 months. They especially liked the naught puppy and the happy puppies. I would shake my finger at the naught one and they quickly learned to do the same. I would make a panting sound for the happy puppies and again, my children quickly learned to imitate the sound. My 10 month old son would actually go get the book, open it up, and start panting. When we lost the book, I had to get another one. Now, my 3.5 year old daughter reads it to her 11 month old brother!

Great for the little ones

My 11 month old son LOVES this book. He wants it read to him all the time. (He started this a couple of months ago.) It's simple and cute. His favorite is the photo of the "happy" puppies.

great for our 12 month-old

Sturdy cardboard pages so he can't rip them. Simple, brief captions so he doesn't get bored. Nothing flashy, but a 12 month-old doesn't need anything too fancy.
