Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Life lessons? Romance? Literary instruction? Go, Dog. Go! offers all this and more, wrapped up in one simply worded, warmly hued package. Using single-syllable words in rhythmic repetition, and introducing colors and prepositions, this Seuss-styled classic has been an early favorite of children since 1961. For those looking for deeper meaning in a beginning reader book, here you'll find nothing less than a microcosm of life. Green dogs, yellow dogs, big dogs, little dogs. Dogs who prefer cars, dogs who favor skis. All represent the diversity a child will find in the world. And the slow-to-bud romance between the cheerfully oblivious yellow dog and the mincing pink poodle explains more succinctly than most self-help books what goes on in many grown-up relationships. Nonetheless, Eastman takes the concept of "primary" to heart, with his simple silly phrases and solidly colored illustrations. Not only will this book inspire peals of laughter in kids, it will also help them make the magical connection between those mysterious black squiggles on the page, and the words they hear and speak. (Ages 4 to 8)

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Beginning Book
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2024

There is a lot of drama about instructing young readers these days. I am a first grade teacher and have found Go Dog Go to be an excellent book for children that are just learning to read. There is some repetition and rhyme, but there are also a lot of opportunities for sounding out words. The context of opposites is also fun for students to understand. I bought four copies and use it with one of my struggling reading groups. They enjoy reading such a big and long book. They also love to reread it during read-to-self time. And, there are plenty of silly parts for us to laugh over which is always a plus.

Loved this when I was a kid, read it to my kids and now its my granddaughters favorite! It has the advantage of not dragging on to long, so an 18 month old child will, for the most part, pay attention without the mystery of where the dogs are going getting too old.
