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


Product Description

Describes Buddy the German Shepard's training at a school for police dogs in the late 1920s and his special relationship with the young Morris Frank, a blind man who trained Buddy to be the first seeing eye dog.

5.0 out of 5 stars Freedom for the blind by using seeing eye dogs., March 14, 2000
By "psobrien" (Saddle River, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is great, May 1, 2008
A Kid's Review
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.
