A gentle and funny child's-eye view of overcoming doubts and meeting a
new pet (or friend).
At first the boy doesn't want to meet a friendly wagging dog at the
park--"Go away, dog!" he says. But as the dog fetches, rolls over,
shakes hands, and otherwise works all its doggy charms, the boy starts
to open up. "You like me, don't you, you old dog?" Maybe they can be
friends after all.
This My First I Can Read uses simple, repeating words, making it a good
match for the youngest emergent readers. The classic story is now
accompanied by appealing modern full-color art by Paul Meisel.

language, word repetition, and whimsical illustrations, ideal for
