I recently spotted this book on Amazon and knew I had to grab it. Wow! I was NOT disappointed. I can highly recommend giving this a read. Below is my book review.
The unique and adorable
illustrations in this book caught my attention. Then, when I read that it’s
based on a true story, I knew I had to grab it.
Koda is a little girl, who tells
readers that, by the time she was five, she knew she was a dog whisperer. Koda
wanted a dog and in order to convince her mom she learns how to relate to just
about every dog she meets. When Koda finally gets the courage to ask her mom if
she can have a dog, mother and daughter sit down to have a heart-to-heart talk
about the responsibilities of owning pets.
Wow! I LOVED this book! There are so
many wonderful things going on in this book – fantastic and eye-catching
illustrations, a lovable main character, a patient and kind parent, the
importance of adopting shelter animals and a truly valuable lesson for
children.
As a mom, grandmother and early
childhood educator, I can say that Much to Do Before a Dog is an excellent,
educational book for children. In my opinion, this book will appeal to both
boys and girls, as well as a wide variety of age groups. A wonderful read!
