Family Fridays – Go, Dog. Go! by P.D. Eastman

Book: Go, Dog. Go! (1961)

Ages: 3-7 Years

Blurb:

Reading goes to the dogs in this timeless Beginner Book edited by Dr. Seuss. From big dogs and little dogs to red, green, and blue dogs, dogs going up and dogs going fast . . . who knew dogs were so busy? And laughter will ensue at the repeated question “Do you like my hat?” Like P. D. Eastman’s classic Are You My Mother? Go, Dog. Go! has been a go-to favorite for over fifty years, leaving audiences of all breeds wagging their tails with delight.

Review:

How much do I love this book? Well, it’s the book I’m giving to my son for his first birthday (this week! Where did the year go?). It’s an excellent early reader book, full of repeated, simple words. And it’s excellent for pre-readers as it covers colors, directions (up, down), relative sizes (big, small) and just a lot of great “young mind concepts”. It even manages to do all of this while still being entertaining. I love P.D. Eastman’s work, and hope to add more of his books to our library over the years, but Go, Dog. Go! will always hold a special place in my heart. Plus, it uses a vocative comma in the title, so what’s not to love?

Get it! Amazon, Barnes and Noble
