This is such a cute and entertaining book! It perfectly captures the joys of having a pet. The drawings are delightful, especially the different types of dogs and cats. The book teaches youngsters about the importance of friendship despite our differences. This is sure to be a favorite on any kid's bookshelf!
A charming beautifully illustrated children's book aimed at primary school ages children. It follows the journey of a tabby cat trying to convince the reader (in a highly accurate and amusing way) why cats are so much better than dogs. It will be loved by both adults and children regardless of if they sit on the dogs or cats are superior debate.
I have also sent this review on Goodreads however it will not alow me to publish one on Amazon.
Cute and adorable illustrations! Recommend to read with little ones and big humans who love dogs. I like that the story is from a cat’s perspective. This book is perfect to read out loud and guarantee to make readers and listeners laugh.
Thank you NetGalley, Quarto Publishing Group- Frances Lincoln Children’s Book and Happy Yak for sending me an ARC in exchange of an honest review of the e-book received.
This book will have you and your children laughing out loud as a very opinionated cat shares the "truth" about dogs. The illustrations support the humorous story and children ages 4 and up will love this delightful story.
I really enjoyed reading this book to my son. He enjoyed having it read to him. I would recommend this books to elementary teachers as well as parents of young children
A book to be enjoyed and laughed out loud by people from 3-103! The illustrations are as hilarious as the text!
The illustrations by the author are fun, simple, colorful, expressive and delightful.
Well suited for reading alone or WITH someone of any age, including ESL, and great for gifting to everyone, especially to a school, church library, or your local public library!
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Quarto Publishing Group – Frances Lincoln Children's Books | Happy Yak via NetGalley. Thank you!
LOL this one had me laughing on the very first page. The book and artwork felt very much like it was being told and illustrated by a cat. Great book that kids will really love.
I read this with my kindergartner, who helped me write this review.
He thought the whole book was so funny, so much so that he belly-laughed through the whole thing. We have a dog and a cat at home so we could see our cat saying these things about his dog friend. The police dog is of course the biggest hit with a 5-year-old boy.
overall the story is adorable and easy to read with the best illustrations!
This is such a lovely, beautiful and brilliant picture book about a cat who describes what a dog is. Okay, not entirely true. The cat does criticise that dogs are stupid and give us reader some funny examples. With rhymes it continues. And later on we will see some cats.
I just loved how playful and compact this book was. It may be short but we don't so many more pages. It's hilarious joyful to read.
I received this e-arc from NetGalley in exchange to give an review. All opinions here, are my own.
We just couldn’t stop LAUGHING! we will be buying this book to add to our daughters collection. In all fairness the cat made some VERY VALID points. Honestly would recommend this book as it was quick, witty and utterly hilarious.
This hilarious story is told from the perspective of a cat in All You Need To Know About Dogs by A Cat and Fred Blunt. As soon as the book begins, cat tries to prove to us that dogs are stupid.
It shows how dogs roll around in puddles of poo and jump in them. The dogs sniff each other's butts. Including their own tails, they chase anything that moves!
It's amazing how many types of dogs there are. There are so many different types of dogs. There are tall dogs, BIG DOGS, wrinkled dogs, etc.
The thing about cats is that you always know what you're getting. It doesn't matter where they are, they just lay around. Unless you're talking about TIGERS, of course!
Please accept my apologies. There is one positive aspect of dogs. You can count on them for loyalty! In case of big, scary wild cats, they will protect you. In fact...
It was an okay book. In my opinion, it wasn't the best children's book I've ever read. Personal preference rather than anything against the book. Honestly, I wouldn't recommend this book. That being said, I always recommend reading other reviews. One reviewer may find a book inappropriate or unsuitable for children, while another may find it perfectly appropriate.
Darling and fun picture book with a cat narrating all you need to know about dogs. Obviously it is a bit of a biased perspective, which makes it silly and funny. I can see my kids loving this picture book and getting a kick out of the silly cat's perspectives.
All You Need To Know About Dogs is a silly story about a cat describing dogs. I think children will find this story hysterical, and the illustrations are cute and colorful.
Perfect for children that have been around cats and dogs.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this advanced read. I am a dog lover and can appreciate this book - the illustrations are adorable and I love how it mentions how loyal dogs are. I love the cats matter of fact attitude and the love/hate dynamic between cats and dogs. This would be a great book for a young child or new reader. So cute!
So funny and full of turns! Quite a short story best suited for younger children. The colourful designs of the dogs are beautiful and expressive.
All You Need To Know About Dogs is a delightful picture book about dogs told from the perspective of a cat. The humor is this book was fantastic and will be sure to tickle the kiddos. The illustrations were fun and had so much character. This was a very short and silly picture book that will definitely make you smile!
Thanks to NetGalley, Quarto Publishing, and Fred Blunt for the chance to read and review!
It's such a cute story that beautifully portrays the endless rivalry between dogs and cats. The style of the illustrations is great because it looks a bit like a children's sketch and I think it could inspire many children to draw themselves.
It's also a great book to introduce young children to animals, especially if they're about to get a new puppy!
Really fun and lighthearted, I'm sure the kids will love it so I definitely recommend it

Silly and adorable with the cutest illustrations. Kids will absolutely love this book and parents will enjoy reading it to them.
This is a cute book very charming.
The story is simple but adorable. I love the drawings, especially the colours, which are bright and give joy and happiness.
It doesn't matter if you are a dog person or a cat person (like me), if you are a child or a grown-up person, either way you will love this book
This book was absolutely hilarious and is the perfect story for children ranging from four to six years old. It’s such a fun picture book with wonderful illustrations.
This story follows this self-assured cats whose goal is to assure us that dogs are the worst. However, things soon change when the cat falls into a sticky situation and dogs are the ones who come to the rescue.
I thought this book was clever and written/illustrated is the most perfect way for younger readers to adore. The depictions were hilarious and this is the perfect addition for a classroom/home library.
