My goodness, I love dogs! So too does the adorable pajama-clad boy in Barney Saltzberg’s aptly titled picture book I Love Dogs.
Depicting dogs of various colors, sizes, and temperaments, this simple book is a sure-fire hit for kids who have a special dog in their lives, as well as those who like to visit the dog park to watch other people’s dogs. While the author extols the virtues of dogs — they play, do tricks, and dig holes — he’s clear that he loves them for one reason. “It isn’t their noses, their tails, or their paws./ I love dogs just because.”
Ages 2-5.
