I Love My Puppy
by Giles Andreae and Emma Dodd
Many young children enjoy books about animals. This is a delightful early reader book. It describes in simple pictures what happens when a new puppy joins the family. Easy sentences mean beginner readers can appreciate this book and read many of the words themselves.
It is written in verse with elementary rhymes such as feet/sweet and chews/shoes. The new puppy is not yet toilet trained and don’t young children love it when the word ‘wee’ appears in a book? A clever, funny and gentle read.
