Loading... Go, Dog. Go! (1961)by P. D. Eastman
None. The first book I ever read all by myself! (  ) Ameliapei | Apr 18, 2013 |  i remember when i was 6 and being able to read this book by myself so i wanted my grandson to be able to do the same thing. he loves books and is always reading them. some i think he's memorized cuz he can't do some of the words. because i sent the book to them i didn't read it. but i do know it's about comparisons. tall/short, wet/not wet, fast/slow, etc the dogs line up for a race to the big tree. it's a really nice surprise when you reach the tree at the end of the race. ( ) jbarr5 | Apr 15, 2013 | Dogs are everywhere! Even in a dog tree party! This entertaining book is certain to bring laughter and is full of fun! After all, dogs are a man and woman's best friend! :) ( ) Cfmichel | Apr 13, 2013 | This book depicts dogs going about their daily lives, and all the fun that they have. Parties, driving, working, and playing, these colorful canines are very busy critters! The story jumps around some, but includes practical lessons like when to yield to pedestrians and being honest. A great little book for early readers. ( ) LeighAnneJensen | Apr 6, 2013 | This is a great book for young children as a beginner book. It's a book all about dogs and compares what they do. This book would be intended for young elementary children. (  ) HelenDiekoff | Dec 10, 2012 | no reviews | add a review Is contained in
Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0394800206, Hardcover)Life lessons? Romance? Literary instruction? Go, Dog. Go! offers all this and more, wrapped up in one simply worded, warmly hued package. Using single-syllable words in rhythmic repetition, and introducing colors and prepositions, this Seuss-styled classic has been an early favorite of children since 1961. For those looking for deeper meaning in a beginning reader book, here you'll find nothing less than a microcosm of life. Green dogs, yellow dogs, big dogs, little dogs. Dogs who prefer cars, dogs who favor skis. All represent the diversity a child will find in the world. And the slow-to-bud romance between the cheerfully oblivious yellow dog and the mincing pink poodle explains more succinctly than most self-help books what goes on in many grown-up relationships. Nonetheless, Eastman takes the concept of "primary" to heart, with his simple silly phrases and solidly colored illustrations. Not only will this book inspire peals of laughter in kids, it will also help them make the magical connection between those mysterious black squiggles on the page, and the words they hear and speak. (Ages 4 to 8)(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 03 Jan 2013 12:57:14 -0500) A story for beginning readers about busy dogs of all sizes and colors, engaged in all manner of silly activities. |
