Giveaway: Dog Loves Books
By Bianca Schulze, The Children’s Book Review
Published: August 2, 2010
Fusing together the dog days of summer and back-to-school preparations, we have the perfect giveaway for you. A book and poster combo of Dog Loves Books by Louise Yates—A cheerfully illustrated picture book that entices little ones (especially dog lovers) to read.
Reading level: Ages 4-8
Hardcover: 32 pages
Book overview: A picture-book treat for the youngest dog lovers.
Dog loves books SO much he opens his very own bookstore. At first he’s short of customers. But that’s all right, because when Dog is surrounded by books, he is never short of friends—or fun. And when customers begin arriving, he knows just which books to recommend.
Louise Yates’s expressive little white dog—and his many expressive doggie customers—extend an irresistible invitation to the very youngest to try reading. It’s fun!

Whoohoo Twitter! lol
My grandson has been raised with two large dogs in the home: a German Shepard named Gretal and a Golden Retriever named Arthur. My grandson Shepard would really enjoy reading these books with his grandma. Shepard’s will be turning four years old next month. I can hear him now telling me that Gretal and Arthur do not read books.
Thank you!
I love four-year-olds! Great news, the book is coming his way. You are the winner.
