Review: Go, Dog. Go!


Go, Dog. Go!
Written and illustrated by P. D. Eastman

Publication Date: 1961
Publisher: Beginner Books
ISBN: 0-394-80020-6

P. D. Eastman was a protégé of Dr. Seuss, and as such, several of his books are classics of the same generation as those of Dr. Seuss. You may recognise some of Eastman’s books from your own childhood, most notably Go, Dog. Go! and, Are You My Mother?.

Go, Dog. Go! begins with the simple word “Dog” then moves on to different sized dogs, different coloured dogs, and different amounts of dogs. As the story progresses, so too do the activities of the dogs and the concepts of up and down, in and out, and under and over are introduced.
My two year old boys really love this book – especially the bits where the dogs are driving. I like this book for its ability to introduce actions and concepts in a fun way.

My rating: 4 out of 5
