My 18 month old has loved this book since we received it as a gift when he was aroud 8 months or so. It is perfect for him, because he is obsessed with dogs and the book has few words, so we can read through quickly or go slower and spend more time looking at the pictures.

In this book each letter of the alphabet has a dog-related word that corresponds to a photo of a dog. Our favorite is J which is "Jump". We always jump at that page. We also like D for "Down", because that is a command we give our dog quite often. Each photo is of a different breed, so they get to look at all sorts of dogs.

If your child is an animal/dog lover and often likes to read through books at a relatively fast pace, this book is perfect for you.

Dog lovers will love this alphabet book. Each page has a close up of some breed of puppy and a dog related word. For example, F shows a beagle pup with a stick in his mouth and the word "Fetch!" and W has a Cavalier King Charles spaniel showing off his tail and the words "Wag, wag, wag". The puppies are all beautifully photographed with a white background and many are shown from interesting or funny angles. At the end of the book is a page that tells what breed of dog is shown with each letter. Karen Woodworth-Roman, Librarian

There is nothing cuter than a furry animal - in this case, dogs. These adorable mutts with their exaggerated angles accompany the letters of the alphabet. A lab comes with the letter C, a terrier is down with the letter D, a furry black and white Vroom's to the letter V, and a hot dog shows his tail for the letter T.

The Dog from Arf! Arf! to Zzzzzz is delightful and beneficial. Using dogs and positioning them to represent the letters of the alphabet is a terrific idea. Seeing actions that represent the word of the letter is fun, and it helps kids retain the alphabet, as well as improve their memory skills. If owning the real thing (a pup) is not possible, this is next best thing for your little one.

I purchased this book to increase my 4 year old daughter's desire to learn the alphabet. The photos are very appealing and really captured my daughter's attention. I would definitely recommend this book to any parent whose children like dogs.

My daughter adores this book. Great pictures of dogs, with simple text, going through the entire alphabet. It's so simple and fun that she's memorized a lot of it which should help her with her reading skills later on. This was another book that we checked out from the library that she got so stuck on that we had to run out and buy a copy for ourselves!

My daughter is 17-months old and is very into dogs right now. When she first saw this books she was so excited at all of the different pictures. She looks at this books over and over again. The pictures are very cute and the book itself is durable enough for a 17-month old!

I bought this book for a 2 year old dog lover, who now LOVES this book--it has been read at least 2x daily since it arrived. As described, it is an alphabet book, with a picture of a dog demonstrating the word used on the page. The pictures are great, with very expressive and adorable dogs (most, if not all, are puppies) and the book includes an index of the dog breeds shown. I bought this at the bargain price of $4.99, and it is a nice, large hardcover book and very well worth the money.

My daughter (almost 2 years old) adores this book! We borrowed it from our library and it quickly became a part of her bedtime routine. It is simple with not a lot of overwhelming colors, patterns, shapes, etc. Just the alphabet and some cute dogs. It has helped us in teaching her to pronunciate her letters. I had to add it to her Amazon wish list because I'm not sure we can give it back to the library? lol

I definitely recommend this as a great ABC board book!

If you are a fan of "The Dog" you will find twenty-six pictures here, one for each letter of the alphabet. Each page contains a word for that letter of the alphabet with an appropriate "The Dog" picture. For example, Beg shows a dog sitting up and begging and Fetch shows a dog with a stick in its mouth. If you are a fan of "The Dog" and your child is just learning to read you will get a lot of fun together out of this book. Be sure not to miss the picture at the very beginning before the alphabet begins, it is perhaps the best illustration of "puppy dog eyes" you'll ever see. The Dog from Arf! Arf! To Zzzzzz is recommended.

The Dog from Arf to Zzzz is a simple alphabet concept book. Each page features a capitol letter and a sweet picture of a dog doing something that starts with the letter. For example we have the letter E and a picture of the dog eating and the word eat on the page.

This book features lots of breeds of dogs. Family members of all ages will enjoy sharing their favorites with each other.

Dog lovers of all ages will enjoy this book. The full color photos are very charming. This is a fun way to get young children to learn the letters of the alphabet.
