A Dog's Best Friend review

This is a great book for the family who loves dogs as well as a fun and helpful guide for children on becoming the best of friends with their pet. I think we have checked this one out several times from our local library.  Inside it is filled with fun things to do, yummy things to make, good care tips from puppyhood to adult, safety tips and some interesting facts about dogs along the way.  It will also help your family answer if you are ready for a dog or not. The craft projects and playtime suggestions are very kid friendly. Our dog loved whenever we would take out our baking pans because she knew we were making her treats from the easy recipes that were included.  We still make them for her from time-to-time.  It is a delightful  book that will help guide children on the responsibility of taking care of a pet, having fun by doing so and also teaching them the importance of caring and love that will develop a bond to last them both a lifetime.  Your pet will thank you! This would be a "just right book" for ages 8 and up. ~
