Do You Have a Dog?

32 pp. | Eerdmans | October, 2011 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8028-5387-5 $16.00
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Geraldo Valério. Rhyming text presents dogs that played important roles in the lives of historical figures (e.g., Meriwether Lewis, Annie Oakley, Billie Holiday). Each canine is described in a few pithy sentences; endpapers give slightly more information. Young readers may be inspired to create similar odes to their own four-legged friends. Acrylic illustrations with broad-textured brush strokes add life to the slight premise.
