Featured Reviews

Excellent cute book for very young readers/toddlers and makes for a good bed time read.
It helps with the adjectives and the encouragement, the lesson and the engagement are all top level for the 0-3-year-olds. Many 4-6 yos would also enjoy this.

This book was an excellent illustrated book about all different kinds of dog breeds. It was an easy book to read and share with my son, with clear pictures, repetitive language and fun lines about different dogs.
This book would be great for those of a Pre-School age, but my six year old son also really enjoyed it.
