This review is from: I Love Dogs: Super Sturdy Picture Books (Hardcover)

This has become my 2 year old daughter's favorite book. She even sleeps with it at night. I ask what she wants to read before bed and and she shouts "I love dogs!" The book is also well made, the pages are sturdy without being a board book, so the pages are easy for her to turn.
