From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Moser knows dogs, and his three-year-old granddaughter, Isabelle, loves them-in particular, his Rottweiler Rosie (short for "Franklin Roosevelt"). While the artist works at his drawing board, visiting Isabelle cares for (and is good-naturedly tolerated by) Rosie. From feeding him Friskies cat(!) food to bathing him to reading him his favorite book (Carl Goes Shopping by Alexandra Day, of course), Isabelle does not let the dog alone for a minute. Moser's exuberant watercolors capture canine and child expressions and physical relationship to a tee. A final illustration has the napping dog and girl peacefully sharing a quilt. Isabelle's brief narration is just enough to lead readers from page to glorious page. This one will have the picture book set begging for Rosies of their own.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Dog Rosie is great, April 14, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: My Dog Rosie (Paperback)

I like the paintings that are made from water colors in My Dog Rosie. I also like how the author writes about his own dog. I like books that are not to long and not to short like My Dog Rosie. My Dog Rosie has good descriptions. I like when the author shows you a picture of his own dog. I think anybody will love this book.

My family loves this book. We accidentally left in Hawaii on vacation and are ordering a new one. Very attractive, large pictures and easy reading. We love Rosie.
