Making Sense of Dog Senses: How Our Furry Friends Experience the World

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Raz Latif. This book explains that the strength of dogs’ senses evolved from their wolf ancestors; predators need superior senses of hearing and smell to find prey. Sections for each sense compare the way dogs experience that sense versus humans, including exercises for experiencing dogs’ senses yourself. The straightforward and approachable text is accompanied by clearly labeled diagrams and charming illustrations of dogs doing what they do best (including...eating diapers!). A glossary and further reading list are appended.
