Dog and Bear by Laura Vaccaro Seeger
Rating: Marginal
Roaring Brook Press, 2007, $12.95
ISBN: 978-1-59643-053-2
Age Level: 3-7 years
An overly simplistic story, even for a children's book. It has three distinct sections, yet each one is short and lacking in substance. The illustrations are lively and original, but the same cannot be said either the characters or the story itself. Overall, not entertaining enough to keep the reader's interest.
