EASY TO SEE WHY

Summary: Wonderful book for kids and adults alike
Review: As the webmaster of a site about puppy mills I constantly preach the importance of early education for our children about dogs. This book does that! We all love our dogs and Fred Gwynne (Herman Munster as we all knew and loved him) did an incredible job of showing us why.

Summary: Wonderful!
Review: I have an original copy of this book and remember it as a child when my grandmother read it to me. It is humorous as well as predictable. Perfect for the young child! The original charcoal-like illustrations are detailed and lend to the textures found in the dogs at the show. The surprise ending makes the kids smile and is great for "logical reasoning" questions. I love this book and thank my grandma for giving it to me!I recommend it to teachers and parents alike!

Summary: Great Book.
Review: I vaguely remember having read this story when I was a child. Thanks to Amazon I have been able to rediscover this delightful little book by Fred Gwynne, the guy who played Herman Munster on the television show "The Munsters". I am amazed at Gwynne's skill as both a storyteller and artist; he created the illustrations, too and they are full of warmth and care. In this book a young girl decides to enter her unpedigreed mutt in a local dog show. She loves her dog very much and thinks he has a chance of winning. Then she begins meeting some other competitors whose pooches look an awful lot like their owners. What's a girl to do, but go ahead and enter the competition. It's easy to see why.
