Illustrated by Ted Rand
This is a poetry book centered around dogs. Being a dog lover, I had to grab this book when I saw in the North Liberty Library.
I cannot claim to be an expert on poetry. To tell the truth, I know next to nothing about what makes a good poem, besides how it rolls off my lips. That being said, I do not feel like there is much in the form of high quality poetry between the covers of this book. The illustrations, however, are wonderful. Any dog fanatic would have a smile on his or her face as they flipped through the paintings of man's best friend.
I can't really recommend this book for a classroom. Unless, you simply would like to have it around for students to enjoy the paintings.
