Description

In Dogs, early readers will learn all about the responsibilities of having a dog, and find out how they can keep their pet healthy and happy. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text will engage emergent readers as they discover what it takes to be a pet owner. A labeled diagram helps readers understand what a dog needs, while a picture glossary reinforces new vocabulary. Children can learn more about pet dogs online using our safe search engine that provides relevant, age-appropriate websites. Dogs also features reading tips for teachers and parents, a table of contents, and an index. Dogs is part of Jump!’s My First Pet series.

Booklist Review

Using an early reader format, these entries in the My First Pet series introduce young children to basic care of common pets. Extreme cuteness with large color photos of animals and their diverse kid owners in action (highlighted by vibrant frames and occasional labels) drives the appeal. The simple, fun text encourages independent reading. In Dogs, kid owners demonstrate dog-care essentials, such as food and water, as well as exercise, baths, check-ups, and dog school for obedience. A concluding visual sums up each animal's care regiment. An attractive series to explore before or after Mom, can I keep it? --Leeper, Angela Copyright 2014 Booklist

School Library Journal Review

PreS-Gr 2-These bright, slight, upbeat introductions to pet ownership are designed for early readers. Basic information is shared through a collection of vignettes. The text, never more than four brief sentences per spread, always gives a name to the pet in the photo and the child, who may not always be shown. The vocabulary is simple but doesn't avoid technical terms such as cuttlebone or nocturnal. This clever personalization of the carefully chosen stock photos adds interest. "Ideas for Parents and Teachers" on the verso page offers before, during, and after reading tips. The concluding page "What Does a ____ Need?" covers the basic pet ownership supplies with brightly labeled photos. The close-up cover images, silhouetted against white and banded in a bright color, will draw animal lovers in. Great selections to round out your pet collection. (c) Copyright 2014.
