I want to say "What a boring little book!" but then again, I'm hardly the target audience. But then again (again) I'm sure I've seen other picture books that help teach colours and other basic principles without being quite so, I don't know, repetitive? (And kind of dull.) I think if I were a parent and had to read this over and over then it, along with Goodnight Moon, would be going on a bonfire. Although it's not all bad. I like the illustrations, and the focus on dogs, and I did get one genuine laugh out of it. "Do you like my hat?" says one dog to another. "I do not," says the second dog, politely, and it amuses me to think of all the little children, reading this over generations, who have given their decided opinion on other people's clothing because of it.
