5.0 out of 5 stars Kids Training Puppies in 5 Minutes, July 15, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Kids Training Puppies in 5 Minutes (Paperback)

My name is Christi, I am 7 years old. I just got a new lab puppy from my Mom and Dad her name is Ginny. Before I could have Ginny I had to promised I would care for her and train her. This book is so great,it is very easy to read and the pictures of the lab puppies and kids are so cute. I taught Ginny to sit and lie down really fast. I think every kid with a puppy should have this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ease and enjoyment of the book, even for adults!, July 22, 2004

This review is from: Kids Training Puppies in 5 Minutes (Paperback)

I was immediately impressed with how easy and clearly illustrative the book is. My youngest child was able to read the book herself. She found the pictures of the puppies and children aspects of the book she could relate to personally.

It's clear that JoAnn Dahan has a real handle on how to instruct children, training puppies, and making it easy for parents!

Reviewed by Stephanie and J.T. (age 9) Rollins for Reader Views (4/07)

"Kids Training Puppies in 5 Minutes" is simple to read. All the words are appropriate for those beginning to read. On most pages, the message is simple and concise. There is a list of tips that are in bullet point form.

There are two different puppies shown throughout the book. A little boy and a girl are shown demonstrating the training tips.

Repetition is used throughout "Kids Training Puppies in 5 Minutes." J.T. asked at one time if he was reading the same page over, because the concepts are the same in many cases. Throughout the book, it is stressed that the children/trainers must develop a relationship with their puppies.

J.T.: "This book is good. I liked it. My friends would like it, too. I do not have a puppy. I have a dog. I am going to train my dog with this book."

This book can be used with preschoolers, also. The pictures are attention-grabbing. The concept is simple. There is a lot of repetition.

I wish there were more children involved in the photographs. There are only two children in the book. To show some diversity would allow all children to relate more to the trainers/children.

JoAnn Dahan and photographer, Walter George, created a wonderful book. "Kids Training Puppies in 5 Minutes" is not only effective in teaching children; it is also enjoyable to read. This book will teach your child the responsibility they have when they have a puppy. It also will help your child create a bond with their pet.
