Totally Fun Things to Do with Your Dog (Play with Your Pet)
Grade 4-7-As the introduction states, "This book is about having fun with your pet, not pet care or training." For first-time owners, however, it does provide some of the basics of choosing a dog and keeping it healthy and happy. Whether readers want to jog with their dog, play ball, or enter shows, this title gives advice on how to do so. The clear, step-by-step instructions on training, safety tips, and many other informative, often humorous tidbits, result in a lively read. Dog bones border the top of each page, paw prints highlight each page number, and simple black-and-white cartoon drawings illustrate the text. This title stresses that owners should enjoy their pets and treat them kindly.Carol Kolb Phillips, The Library, East Brunswick, NJCopyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.
