K-3Super SandCastle: Dog Daze series.
These books provide basic information about each breed. Topics include appearance, training, and doggie proclivities ("Things I Like: Learning new tricks," "Things I Dislike: Harsh punishments"). Though there are some useful specifics about the breeds' personalities and histories, the texts are generally too vague or bland. Vivid photographs of pups romping and posing add life. Glos. Review covers these Super SandCastle: Dog Daze titles: Bold Boxers, Brainy Brittanys, and Jumping Jack Russell Terriers.
