Great Reading February 4, 2007

This is a wonderful book for beginning readers to share with another child or a caring adult. It is one of the favorite books of our "Read to the Dog" students.

While this children's book wins its merit on the poetry and illustrations alone, it will also be a delight for admirers of the Bernese Mountain Dog. The author adeptly reflects the gentle, curious and playful aspects of the breed. I own a Bernese Mountain Dog and my preschool daughter enjoys hearing the book over and over!

Farmer's Garden November 13, 2000

From Childrens Literature - Children's Literature Cheery illustrations are the strength of this poem about animal life in a garden. A wide-eyed Bernese Mountain Dog asks questions to a series of characters who inhabit the field. A strawberry, a bunny, a corn stalk, a cow, a chicken, a worm, a carrot, a beetle, a lizard, a radish, a deer, and even the farmer himself sing back their view from among the earthen rows. Along the way, we learn that strawberries dream of being plucked at their peak, that corn has ears, and that lizards delight in beetle dinners. Wanderers from other parts of the farm are warned by the farmer's dog not to trample or scratch the growing seeds. Repetition and wonderful words create interest-sparking alliteration. The series of questions creates the perfect opportunity for a second voice or reader. Onomatopoeia makes the reading come alive. Young readers will enjoy participating in the read-aloud, while very little ones will listen intently. 2000, Wordsong Boyds Mills Press, Ages 3 to 7, $15.95.
