Bark George

by Jules Feiffer
Published by Michael di Capua Books Harper Collins 1991
32 Pages
Genre: Picture Book

Summary:
George cannot bark. His mom tries and tries but he can only make other animal sounds. So she takes him to the vet where the vet pulls out a cat, a duck, a pig and a cow. Finally George can bark. On their way home George goes to bark and says, "Hello!" The pastel colors in this book are really fun. They are not to bright bu there is still plenty of color. This book would be really great for color identification in kindergarten and such. This would be a good book for very little ones, good for repetition and word identification as well.

Reaction:
I have always loved this book. It's so fun and twists reality a little bit. However it's a fun was to let it be possible.

Potential Problems:
None

Recommend:
I would recommend this as a great read-aloud book! The colors and text are simple enough to work on recognition and it just has a great story line!
