Book Review: Dog's Advice

Dog's Advice by Sean Stroud

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This children book by Sean Stroud is an ideal read not only for kids but also for adults of all ages. The book is fascinating with pictorial representations and prose form of storytelling. It successfully generates and maintains interest till the end.

Dog's Advice, very quietly and humbly makes the reader understand the importance of doing good to others. Something which as adults we all know and teach to our kids, but somehow in our daily lives miss doing it precisely the way it should be done! This 54 pager read very accurately reinforces the power of doing good in our minds, in a straightforward and understandable manner. No complexities, no beating around the bush, just straight to the point!

Interest to understand how Kaleb will get on his foot and the identity of the old man is maintained till the last page.

'Don't follow this crowd, you are sure to fail. You be the light, so good can prevail' – motivation for the kids to think out of the box and not to follow the herd blindly.

'Your environment needn't dictate the person you become' - such a powerful lesson explained so seamlessly.

Another beauty of the read is the vocabulary it adds into the child's kitty. The book is a perfect mix of good read, language, and life lessons along with an interesting and eye-catching narrative.

Kids are surely going to love the book, and adults too!
