Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Gr. 2^-3. It's too bad the illustrations aren't livelier, because the story about the first Seeing Eye dog in America is quite upbeat and contains some interesting anecdotes. Moore's telling is a little stiff at first, but the circumstances, relayed in a straightforward manner softened with some conversation, win out: Moore follows the dog from training in Switzerland to home in America with Morris Frank, who was instrumental in starting the Seeing Eye in America in the 1930s. The typeface is slightly enlarged, and there's additional leading to make the reading easier. Not every page has an illustration, but there are plenty of pictures to break up the text. Stephanie Zvirin

This book is an excellent chronical of The Seeing Eye, yet written in language a child can understand. The examples of exciting events punctuate and enliven the text.

A Kid's Review
This review is from: Buddy: The First Seeing Eye Dog (Hello Reader!, Level 4) (Paperback)
The characters are Buddy, the first seeing eye dog, his master that was blind, the person who trained Buddy and the person who trained Buddy's master.

It took place in a big field, on a boat and in his master's home.

Buddy was trained to be a seeing eye dog. His master was trained to know how to take care of Buddy.

This book is awesome! It was exciting and fun and it had a dramatic ending.
