Summary: Delightful fun while learning
Review: Dog's Colorful Day is a combined counting and colors book. Dog accumulates spots one at a time [9 plus Dog's original spot], allowing the young person to practice counting from one to ten. Each spot that Dog accumulates is a different color [the original spot is black], allowing the young person to learn their colors. The art in the book is simple and effective. The story has some pretty farfetched elements [the bee making the yellow pollen spot on Dog, a splash from a mud puddle making the GREY(!) spot], but it's a fun story and the savvy adult can eventually discuss the plausibility of each spot with the more precocious child. The colors in some cases are different shades than I would have chosen to represent several colors, but the shades chosen do represent the colors they are supposed to. I enjoyed the book and think that it has more going for it than the typical counting or colors book. I would recommend this book for anyone with a preschooler learning colors and counting.

Summary: Great teaching tool for little ones
Review: My 23 month old daughter loves the "Dog" books and this one is no exception. It is a wonderful book to have to teach toddlers colors and counting. Dog is such a fun character; he makes learning enjoyable.

Summary: A hit with my 14 month old twins
Review: My almost 2 year old daughter has us read this book as often as possible, and she 'reads' it to herself. A great way to reinforce colors and numbers (through 10).
And a fun book to read over... and over... and over again.

Review: My boys love to read and this is their current favorite. We can't read it enough and I enjoy it with them. Great for beginning to learn, colors and even some simple nouns like dog, bee and ball. I just bought it as a gift for several friends.

Review: My three year old son STILL loves this book which we have been reading for over a year. He now counts to ten and knows all the colors. This book is enjoyable to read to him and I highly recommend it.
