From Booklist
Like its predecessor Three Stories You Can Read to Your Dog (1995), this volume offers short stories written in second person, purportedly for reading aloud to a dog. The witty, believable portrayal of canine thoughts and behavior will amuse readers, if not their pets. The first story begins with the dog's elation when he thinks he hears the word "walk." Instead, his owner takes him to the "doc,"--the veterinarian. In the second, the dog discovers a turtle, which he considers to be a strange rock. The third involves a bath to rid the dog of fleas. True Kelley's lively ink-and-watercolor illustrations brighten every page with their portrayal of a mutt more notable for enthusiasm than intelligence. The relatively simple text and larger type could land the book on beginning reader shelves or in the early chapter book area. In either location, children will be happy to find this funny book of dog stories. Carolyn Phelan
