Review: The Campaign Trail
Rating: 5 out of 5

This is a fun and imaginative book for parents to introduce their children to the election process. The two candidates are Cat and Dog and they take you on the campaign trail as they each present their platform and introduce their qualifications.The illustrations by Bill Bruning jump off the page as we follow the candidates on the road to Election Day. I loved the way this book reflects that the election process does not have to be a negative attack between the candidates but a coming together of ideas.This is a story that is humorous yet also sends a wonderful message as all of Julia Dweck's books do. It's about working together for the common good and leaving the hostility behind.  I recommend this book for children and parents alike.
