Dogs! Dogs! Dogs! Dogs! Dogs!

Last time we shared picture books about cats.  So this week, I thought we would share some of our favorite cat picture books.

Digger Dog by William Bee
Digger Dog loves to dig up bones - the bigger the better. But for the biggest bone in the world, what will Digger Dog need? The biggest digger in the world, of course! 

My Dog Is the Best by Laurie Ann Thompson

Rrralph by Lois Ehlert
The narrator describes discovering how Ralph the dog can talk, appropriately saying words such as "roof," "rough," "bark," and "wolf."

This Is Gus by Chris Chatterton
Gus is a grumpy dog. He doesn't like birthdays. He doesn't like being petted. And he certainly doesn't like making new friends. In fact, the only thing Gus seems to like is sausages. But will the arrival of a new puppy change his mind?

Humorous rhyming text takes the reader through twenty-seven unexpected varieties of dogs that one could have as a pet.
