Well, this sounds like a good story, taking the perspective of a dog. I, myself, wonder how things would seem to a dog. And feel like a dog. I got this feeling way back yet, when still as a pup ---err, I mean as a child. Thanks for your interesting review.

It is such a pity when a children's book is not well-executed, since I think that education resources for kids should be both informative and interesting. Nonetheless, thanks for the review!

Oh boy. This book is clearly an example of why not every idea for a book is a GOOD idea for a book. I value your insights and recommendations for improvements, and hope the author does as well. Great review.

Thank you for your thorough review! The cover of this book and the description of it would certainly have attracted my interest. After reading your review, however, I see that the book fails to deliver in several places. I think I will skip this one.

Perhaps it is difficult for Grampa Farkas to think like a dog at his age? But if this is the pair's fifth adventure, some people must be encouraging Grampa. I do hope Grampa has grandchildren who can help him make his books more charming. Do I hear Sassy and Taffy agreeing? Arf!
