Each book in this set gives very brief information about the given breed, including personality and care. Except for pages about the breed's history and appearance, most of the material is repeated across volumes (e.g., each breed needs a healthy diet, toys, and exercise). The texts are bland but accessible; clean design shows off stock photos of each kind of dog. Glos., ind. Review covers these Checkerboard Animal Library: Dogs titles: Affenpinschers, Alaskan Malamutes, Cesky Terriers, and Doberman Pinschers.
