K-3Pebble Plus: Big Dogs series.
Short, choppy sentences give basic information about these giant breeds including origins, behavior, needs, and lifespans. Excellent photographs on the right of each spread show dogs at rest, at play, and with children. Left-hand text pages are decorated with pawprints and, strangely, bubbles. A size comparison to a baby elephant and critical thinking questions are appended. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers the following Big Dogs titles: Bernese Mountain Dogs, Irish Wolfhounds, and Mastiffs.
