I am an adult, former president of an animal welfare group that stresses humane education and information. This is the best all around dog book for children and for adults who have either never had a dog and are thinking of getting one (adopt from an animal shelter or humane group, please!) or who want to learn more about dogs.

I have had dogs and read dog books all my life, and I learned some interesting and fun things from this book. Besides being very informative and accurate, this book is one of those rare ones that people actually read (versus buying with the intent to do so some day).

It is filled with short informational boxes, covers everything lightly from the evolution of the dog to how to understand what a dog is trying to tell you! I have had 9 year old boys read it from cover to cover, a rare thing. Lots of photos, tips, and information. I recommend it to all dog owners and lovers.
